          Abstract

          El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la contribución del filósofo de la ciencia Ian Hacking a la historia cultural de la psiquiatría. Partiendo de conceptos propuestos por el autor, como "enfermedad mental transitoria" o "inventar/construir gente", se reflexiona en torno a la construcción socio-cultural de la enfermedad mental. Se examinan y discuten los dos estudios de caso propuestos por Hacking: la fuga disociativa y la personalidad múltiple, identificando las fortalezas y debilidades de sus planteamientos y la posible aplicación de los mismos a la historia y a la teoría psicopatológica.

          Translated abstract

          The aim of this paper is to analyze the contribution of philosopher of science Ian Hacking to the cultural history of psychiatry. Based on ideas proposed by this author, as "transient mental illness" or "making up people", some reflections on the socio-cultural construction of mental illness are offered. The examination and discussion the two case studies proposed by Hacking, dissociative fugue and multiple personality, allow to identify the weaknesses and strengths of his approaches and its applicability to the history and theory of psychopathology.

              Disease in history: frames and framers.

              In some ways disease does not exist until we agree that it does--by perceiving, naming, and responding to it. These acts of agreement have during the past century become increasingly central to social as well as medical thought. What is often overlooked, however, is the process of disease definition itself--the fashioning of explanatory "frames" for understanding disease--and the consequence of those definitions, once they are agreed upon, in the lives of individuals, in the making and discussion of social policy, and in the structuring of medical care. More study is needed of the individual experience of disease in time and place, the relation of culture to definition of disease, and the role of the state in defining and responding to disease.
