University Researcher Examines Medical Practice in Tunisia
A new book by Dr. Mahmoud Dakar titled "Medical Practice in Tunisia: A Critique of the Healing Mind" has been published. It explores the deconstruction of the structure of therapeutic practices in Tunisia and analyzes how the "healing mind" is shaped through three main approaches: the biological reductionism of healthcare institutions, the cultural extension of alternative medicine, and the existential pragmatism of the patient. The book explains that the healthcare system suffers from an epistemological exclusion that ignores the patient's culture and environment. It also views the therapeutic multiplicity as a silent protest against the alienation of the body within hospitals. The author emphasizes the necessity of reforming the health system to make it more responsive to the cultural and environmental context of the patient, supported by field research on pollution in Gabes. The aim of the book is to spark an epistemological revolution in Tunisian medicine, strengthening its relationship with the culture and environment of the patient.
