Description
Santé, Société et Solidarité - Année 2009 - Volume 8 - Numéro 1 - Pages 109-117Cet article met en relief la pertinence de tenir compte des paradigmes qui structurent les catégories de pensée sur lesquelles se fondent les dispositifs de protection de l’enfance en France et au Québec. Il propose de considérer deux éléments dans la comparaison des réalités des deux contextes nationaux: les modèles de démocratie et les modes opérationnels de réponse sociale. Le modèle de démocratie républicain accorde à l’État une place très différente dans la vie privée des individus et dans l’organisation de l’espace public comparativement au modèle nord-américain. Sur le plan des modes opérationnels, les rapports entre les producteurs de connaissances et les utilisateurs de celles-ci sont fort différents dans les deux pays, notamment en ce qui a trait à la proximité de ces deux groupes au Québec. Finalement, les référents théoriques privilégiés – la perspective psychanalytique en France et la perspective écosystémique au Québec – conditionnent profondément les conceptions de l’enfant et de son développement, des parents et de leurs responsabilités, et du rapport entre la famille et les institutions sociales.
This article highlights the importance of taking into account the paradigms which structure the analytical categories on which the child protection systems in France and Quebec are based. It suggests considering two factors in comparing the realities of the two national contexts: the models of democracy and the operational modes of social response. The republican democracy model gives the state a very different role in the private life of individuals and in the organization of the public space, compared to the North American model. As regards the operational modes, relations between knowledge producers and knowledge users differ greatly in both countries, in particular regarding the proximity of these two groups in Quebec. Lastly, the theoretical referents favoured – the psychoanalytical perspective in France and the ecosystemic perspective in Quebec – profoundly influence the conceptions of a child and his or her development, parents and their responsibilities, and the relationship between family and social institutions.
