Abstract

The article examines the patient-doctor relationship, relying on Michel Foucault's concept of the clinical gaze. We argue that during the last decades, a profound transformation of the social nature of medicine took place, one that Foucault's understanding of the clinical gaze cannot adequately account for. First, the article offers an elaboration of the three-node network of clinical gaze, the clinic, and nosology to explain the positioning of the doctor and the patient within the specific social ontology generated by the rise of medicine. We then discuss intensive but irresolute developments brought by technological advancements, especially the X-ray tube. Finally, we argue that in the contemporary clinic, equipped with a plethora of sophisticated devices, the position of the doctor endured the most radical transformation in comparison with Foucault's proponent of the clinical gaze at the dawn of modern medicine.

福柯今天的临床凝视概念。

本文借助米歇尔·福柯的临床凝视概念来审视医患关系。我们认为，在过去的几十年里，医学的社会性质发生了深刻的转变，这是福柯对临床凝视的理解无法充分解释的。首先，本文阐述了临床凝视、诊所和病分科的三节点网络，以解释医生和患者在医学兴起所产生的特定社会本体中的定位。然后，我们讨论了技术进步，特别是x射线管带来的密集但不确定的发展。最后，我们认为，在配备了大量复杂设备的当代诊所中，与福柯在现代医学之初对临床凝视的支持者相比，医生的地位经历了最彻底的转变。

期刊介绍： Health Care Analysis is a journal that promotes dialogue and debate about conceptual and normative issues related to health and health care, including health systems, healthcare provision, health law, public policy and health, professional health practice, health services organization and decision-making, and health-related education at all levels of clinical medicine, public health and global health. Health Care Analysis seeks to support the conversation between philosophy and policy, in particular illustrating the importance of conceptual and normative analysis to health policy, practice and research. As such, papers accepted for publication are likely to analyse philosophical questions related to health, health care or health policy that focus on one or more of the following: aims or ends, theories, frameworks, concepts, principles, values or ideology. All styles of theoretical analysis are welcome providing that they illuminate conceptual or normative issues and encourage debate between those interested in health, philosophy and policy. Papers must be rigorous, but should strive for accessibility – with care being taken to ensure that their arguments and implications are plain to a broad academic and international audience. In addition to purely theoretical papers, papers grounded in empirical research or case-studies are very welcome so long as they explore the conceptual or normative implications of such work. Authors are encouraged, where possible, to have regard to the social contexts of the issues they are discussing, and all authors should ensure that they indicate the ‘real world’ implications of their work. Health Care Analysis publishes contributions from philosophers, lawyers, social scientists, healthcare educators, healthcare professionals and administrators, and other health-related academics and policy analysts.
