Medicine, humanization and discoincidence: an exploratory articulation of new resources for tillichian thought on health

Abstract

Based on the theoretical framework of discoincidence proposed by the philosopher François Jullien, this article explores the challenges of humanizing medical care, as well as the introduction of the spiritual dimension in the care of the patients. Finally, he discusses the possible dialogue between these contemporary reflections and the considerations of the Lutheran theologian Paul Tillich on health.
