Psychiatrie et bioéthique : entre mesure et démesure

The links between bioethics and psychiatry are still insufficiently described in the literature. Yet they touch on the psychiatric practices and the societal perspective in which they are embedded. Deepening this dialogue means seeking to allow the clinic to embody these necessary limits that humans need to give themselves in order to allow a living together that is favorable to the living world. These limits to the application of each person's wishes must be met with the appropriate use of therapeutic means resulting from ever greater knowledge and scientific progress. Every actor in care and research must regain that pride which is fidelity to our limits. These are fundamentally the bases of a common clinical and therapeutic path that this alliance between ethics, relational life and psychic singularity allows to trace.
