title: [Towards a transcultural approach to eating disorders].
abstract: Anorexia must not be considered as a syndrome specific to a culture but as being linked to fast-moving sociocultural changes. Its occurrence can be favoured by certain transcultural phenomena, such as globalisation and the process of acculturation. The analysis of a clinical case of a young migrant with anorexia illustrates the complexity and need for complementary transcultural psychotherapy, to improve understanding and the future.
