The systemic paradigm: The intersubjective-narrative approach versus the relational-generational one

Abstract

This purpose of this contribution is to present the distinctive features of two of the most important clinical-social approaches that follow from the systemic paradigm: the intersubjective-narrative approach, focused on principles and intervention modalities, and the relational-generational approach. Although originating from the same paradigm, each approach presents a history of research intervention and internal changes that should be recognized and appreciated as constituting two -distinct approaches of thought and clinical intervention.
