Abstract
CORREA-URQUIZA, Martín. Conditions for dialogue: lay knowledge and new speech contexts. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2018, vol.38, n.134, pp.567-585. Epub Feb 01, 2021. ISSN 2340-2733. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0211-57352018000200012.
In light of the broad growth of collectives, entities and federations that are defined as “in the first person”, the intention here is to problematize the question of the so-called profane or lay knowledge, its contexts and circumstances of expression and development, as well as its obstacles and difficulties to acquire a socially legitimized status. When we talk about profane knowledge, we refer to that conceptual elaboration that derives from the subjective experience of the psychic/emotional/social suffering. This knowledge frequently runs the risk of being a “blind spot” for the expert look, but, in various ways, acts and emerges as a constitutive element of survival strategies and self-care in the subjects of the so-called madness. This knowledge seeks to be accepted, recognized, and is presented as a key element when it comes to enabling the conditions of dialogue in the field of reflection on suffering and the construction of itineraries towards better living.
