Résumé : |
Rationality implies necessary sequences, subject to rules, which avert what is hazy and uncertain and claim to reach what is true. Control by thought leads to the temptation of efficiency in action. Reason then instrumentalizes and transforms knowledge into power. What does this mean when the object to which it is applied is a subject, defined as being in search of meaning ? A rationality subordinated to the logic of proof has no need of subjectivity, but, applied
in human sciences, it reifies the subject caught in the net of laws which. while claiming to
contrai it, give it over to undesirable effects. However, listening to the subject is not irrational;
it follows the processes by which it tends to make sense, the sequences hy which it
links its expe rience. The clinical approach. by following this consrruction/ deconstruction,
is placed, not within contrai but in the deciphering and in a logic of experiencing which
operates as recognition as well knowledge. |
