Abstract
A society where desolation and delirium reigns attacks first and foremost the human and social sciences, and runs the risk of breaking the bonds of intersubjectivity and solidarity. The renunciation of the latter is at the root of the collective loss of meaning and the return of fear of madness. Mental health caregivers feel the impact of this new world and, seized by the urgency of the situation, act in the present rather than looking to the future, taking history into account, medicalizing and then subjecting human problems of life and death to psychiatric analysis and treatment. The rationalization of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches dictated more by today's economism, which is not a human and social science but an ideology, threatens to sweep away the achievements of institutional child psychiatry, and the indispensable ethic of inter-human encounter that lies at the heart of care.
