Abstract

Daily clinical practice confronts us not only with the clinical aspect but also with the political. Political orientation has a direct impact on the way in which we carry out this clinical practice, as well as on the place of those who are outside the system. The politics of civilisation are therefore an option in the face of neoliberalism.

Keywords: Civilisation; Clinical practice; Clinique; Engagement; Ethics; Politics; Politique; Éthique.
