| Résumé : | Aim: This paper is a reflection on pain under its normative consideration. Questions of ethnicity and gender are also considered. A short reflection is made about the relationship of pain and language. Materials and methods: Most references are taken from philosophical and medical publications. The author will also bring his own reflection on the subject. Results: Pain imposes its own norms but its approach may also lead to normative considerations, sometimes questionable. Conclusion: Pain is a language’s purpose and production, regarding its expression and its management, leading to its very particular representation. Pain meets philosophical and ideological contingencies. If pain can be and must be treated, it cannot be a universal norm. |
