Abstracts

EN

This paper outlines the development of intercultural psychopathology in recent decades and points out the consequences of this development for the theory and practice of diagnosis, psychotherapy and patient care. The main part of the paper gives a description of specific developments in China which have evidently been responsible for the fact that depression is almost unknown in that country, where – unlike in Europe – neurasthenia is a common diagnosis. General conclusions are then drawn from the information presented.
