          Abstract

          El trabajo comienza delimitando los conceptos de paradigma, programa de investigación y programa de trabajo de la ciencia y la tecnología con el fin de enunciar una concepción "postkuhniana" de la ciencia y al tecnología. Una concepción que, a entender del autor, se ha aplicado muy poco en la metateoría de la psico(pato)logía, la psiquiatría y las disciplinas de la salud mental. Se enfoca este ámbito como un ámbito tecnocientífico marcado por dos problemas fundamentales, desde su misma inauguración, constitutivamente interdisciplinaria: el reduccionismo biologista y la influencia directa de todo tipo de deformaciones ideológicas. Las hipótesis general del trabajo es que, en el fondo de cualquier problema teórico y metateórico de la psiquiatría y las disciplinas de la salud mental actuales, estarán siempre influyendo ese dos tipos de problemas. Máxime en el campo de la psiquiatría, que es definida en el trabajo como una disciplina fundamentalmente tecnológica, es decir, técnica con procedimientos y modelos científicos. Se ilustran esas hipótesis con varias situaciones teóricas, técnicas y pragmáticas de nuestra especialidad. Para terminar, se rastrean las "epistemologías derivadas" presentes en las modernas teorías psico(pato)lógicas y psiquiátricas y se pasa a redefinir las "15 tesis" sobre el tema enunciadas en mi trabajo de 1978.

          Translated abstract

          The autor sets out to define the concepts of paradigm, research program and scientific and technological working programs in an attempt to formulate a "post-Kuhnian" concept of science and technology. In his opinion, this concept has not merited sufficient attention in the metatheory of psycho(patho)logy, psychiatry and the mental health disciplines. The analysis focuses on the sphere of the technosciences; a sphere which has been marked from its interdisciplinary beginnings by two fundamental problems: biological reductionism and the direct influence of all types of ideological deformations. The author concludes that the theoretical and metatheoretical problems arising in psychiatry and the mental health disciplines today are influenced by these two problems; particularly so in the field of psychiatry, wich is defined as a fundamentally technological or technical discipline with scientific models and procedures. The author supports his hypotheses with several examples of theoretical, technical and pragmatic situations ocurring in the field. Finally, he investigates the "derived epistemologies" present in modern psycho(patho)logical and psychiatric theories and goes on to redefine the "15 theses" formulated in his work of 1978.

          A new intellectual framework for psychiatry.

          E Kandel (1998)
          In an attempt to place psychiatric thinking and the training of future psychiatrists more centrally into the context of modern biology, the author outlines the beginnings of a new intellectual framework for psychiatry that derives from current biological thinking about the relationship of mind to brain. The purpose of this framework is twofold. First, it is designed to emphasize that the professional requirements for future psychiatrists will demand a greater knowledge of the structure and functioning of the brain than is currently available in most training programs. Second, it is designed to illustrate that the unique domain which psychiatry occupies within academic medicine, the analysis of the interaction between social and biological determinants of behavior, can best be studied by also having a full understanding of the biological components of behavior.

            Biology and the future of psychoanalysis: a new intellectual framework for psychiatry revisited.

            The American Journal of Psychiatry has received a number of letters in response to my earlier "Framework" article (1). Some of these are reprinted elsewhere in this issue, and I have answered them briefly there. However, one issue raised by some letters deserves a more detailed answer, and that relates to whether biology is at all relevant to psychoanalysis. To my mind, this issue is so central to the future of psychoanalysis that it cannot be addressed with a brief comment. I therefore have written this article in an attempt to outline the importance of biology for the future of psychoanalysis.
