[Culture and psychiatry: connections or contributions?].
Fifteen years ago, Pelicier wrote the "what distinguishes contemporary ethnology from the most honest studies of the past, is that it does not attempt to demonstrate anything but rather to respect the topic of study and that it shuns stereotypes and interpretations". Connection or contribution? Who contributes what to whom and who connects what to whom? We propose a reflection on the relationship between two subjects of different culture and the contribution that one could make by connecting to the other. Exposition and/or statement. The only means that we have is our memory and what others have given us to hear, for lack of ability to listen.
