Abstract
Drawing on his practice as a psychiatrist, the author approaches madness as an emergent phenomenon and as an event. The beginning of psychosis is held to result from a subjective permeability, which belongs itself to an ecology of the mind seen as a moving being. As an emergent phenomenon, psychosis shows two characteristics which the paper analyses in terms of disturbances in the interaction order : « concernement » and « centralité ».
