Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Fielding Institute, 1997.

Interpreting the dialogue between patient and physician has expanded beyond the range of the analysis of conversation to the interpretation of concepts and social principles. Questions about the interaction between language and social dynamics complicated the analysis of the clinical encounter. I explored the nature of illness and the effect this event had on the patient. Analysis shifted from concentration on the linguistic structure of the clinical dialogue between patient and physician to a philosophical exploration of the "subject."

520 $a Interpreting the dialogue between patient and physician has expanded beyond the range of the analysis of conversation to the interpretation of concepts and social principles. Questions about the interaction between language and social dynamics complicated the analysis of the clinical encounter. I explored the nature of illness and the effect this event had on the patient. Analysis shifted from concentration on the linguistic structure of the clinical dialogue between patient and physician to a philosophical exploration of the "subject."
520 $a Examination of the clinical dialogue in light of Luhmann's work on differentiation convinced me that his theory of self-reference contributed to understanding the relationship between language and the social dynamic of the clinical encounter. Accepting Luhmann's ideas required me to rethink the way in which people know themselves.
520 $a This knowledge requires a type of understanding embedded in a subject-free philosophy. Luhmann's system of self-reference lets go of the subjective/objective duality in order to grasp the complex issues of the "informational age." In the context of the debate confronting the postmodern world, self-reference systems need to intensify efficient informational advantages in order to meet the requirements of an "organized information diffusion" process and maintain rapid information gathering and processing capability.
520 $a Illustrating Luhmann's definition of differentiation with a case study of a clinical encounter defines illness in system terminology. During attempts to implement theory, problems emerge in the form of creative misreadings. Value is achieved when these misreadings are recognized and applied as critique. The application of theoretical principles is never carved in stone; Luhmann's theory has proved that for me.
