Serge Valdinoci (born: 1947) is a French thinker known for developing the method known as europanalysis.

Note: This section translates the French wiki entry.

europanalysis is a method of thought presented under the form of a philosophic, scientific, and heuristic doctrine. It has been elaborated and proposed by Serge Valdinoci, at the end of the 20th century, as detaching itself from phenomenology, from which it initially endeavored to extract a kernel of invariance.

Although derived from anterior labors, europanalysis editorially emerges at the end of the 80s, in the context of the development of Non-Philosophy by a first working group gathered alongside François Laruelle[1]. Strongly distanced from all religious folklore, it is nevertheless presented as a "mystique of thought" that seeks to translate/transduce (traduire) what immanence is (according to the exigencies initially posed by Edmund Husserl[2]), and to produce within this epistemological frame a theory of invention that hinges on a method as much as a lived experience.

Etymology

The term "europanalysis" (without a capital 'E' in most of the published works) is forged from the 20th century's psychiatric terminology (Psychoanalysis, Daseinanalysis / Existential Analysis, Schicksanalyse, ...), for the relational and therapeutic matrix of which it poses the fundaments, and from "europe" (without a capital 'E') that designates the "domain of immanence" of which Europe, historical and contextual (political, cultural, economic, geographic, ...), is the culmination within the space of objectivation and representations (individual just as well as collective).

The choice of an orthography with capitals, orally imperceptible (like the "a" in Jacques Derrida's Differance), is inscribed on the one hand within the conceptual frame opposing minorities to Authorities[3], the authority of the order of representations relating to "Europe". It connotes, on the other hand, the invisible character, foreign to perception (to space-time, to the partes extra partes), of the domain of immanence explored, thus relaying the theoretical approaches of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, or indeed Raymond Ruyer.

Works

One can present, in chronological order, the books that punctuate the progressive advance and elaboration of this approach of immanence, the body, and invention, and that coincides with a tight analysis of problems of semantics and profound mechanisms of civilization. There exists, moreover, a fairly large mass of contributions under the form of articles (on Raymond Ruyer, Husserl, Psychiatry, Non-Philosophy...) that are disseminated in journals (principally La Revue de Métaphysique et de morale, L’Évolution psychiatrique and La Décision Philosophique)[4].

Les Fondements de la phénoménologie husserlienne (The Fundaments of Husserlian Phenomenology) (Nijhoff, 1982)

This book, that is not yet a book of europanalysis in the strict sense, is a doctoral thesis, guided by Paul Ricœur and defended under the jury presidency of Emmanuel Levinas. Nevertheless, it attempts, this is its problematic, to disengage and identity of the phenomenological gesture, which has has historically burst forth since the Husserlian foundation.

Hard to read, it entails a labor on phenomenological research, leaning on Husserl's manuscripts. A very strong cognizance of the phenomenological field is required to unravel the technical stakes.

The book leads to the necessity of the auto-effacement of philosophical concepts elaborated by historical phenomenology in view of liberating their operative character and avoiding the freezing of thought once again—Husserl's very—within a the elaboration of a doctrine of a Neo-Kantian type of transcendental subject.

Le Principe d'existence. Un devenir psychiatrique de la phénoménologie (The Existence Principle: A Psychiatric Becoming of Phenomenology) (Nijhoff, 1988)

The work that follows the thesis opens onto the given of the passage from the phenomenologies of Husserl and Heidegger towards psychopathological theories. Leaning on the great psychiatric modelings (Pinel, Jaspers, Freud), this work attempts to seize the cogs that permit thought to pass from the theory of man to the clinic (from Kant to Pinel for example, Dilthey etc.). The work is buttressed on the work of Erwin Straus, Minkowski, Binswanger, the errancies of research and theoretical trial-and-errors of whom are described, as well as the impasses, and with whom the strongest intuitions are confronted. The objective is to open phenomenology to its usage in medicine, and to commence to exhume the practice of the clinic as the affective fundamentCite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content of mystique and invention.
