Resumen

FRANCO, Sérgio de Gouvêa. Criticisms regarding psychoanalysis, the phenomenological approach, fundamental psychopathology. Lat. Am. j. fundam. psychopathol. on line [online]. 2008, vol.5, n.1, pp. 118-127. ISSN 1677-0358.

This article discusses the epistemological crisis in course today, which encompasses not only psychoanalysis in particular, but the humanities in general. The article shows how psychoanalysis cannot be approved according to positivist criteria of science. Failed attempts at reformulating psychoanalysis are recalled and the author suggests that there is need for more radical approaches that will allow a break with these positive criteria of science. The text shows similarities between psychoanalysis with Husserl's phenomenology but also points out the limits of this approximation. Finally, psychoanalysis is placed in the interdisciplinary context of fundamental psychopathology, where tension and conflict among positions are tolerated.

Palabras clave : Epistemological Crisis; Psychoanalysis; Phenomenology; Fundamental Psychopathology.
