Traduction de Délinquance de Leo Kanner. En 1935, Leo Kanner publie Child Psychiatry (Psychiatrie de l’enfant) dont est tiré le chapitre ci-dessous qui nous dévoile un Leo Kanner clinicien de et dans la cité de cette première moitié du XXe siècle au plus près de la cause des enfants. Il se pose la question de savoir comment la société peut et doit accueillir la délinquance; après une longue revue de la littérature de son époque, il défend l’idée que la délinquance concerne au plus près le pédopsychiatre et que son rôle (à côté de tout l’appareil judiciaire) est de trouver avec l’enfant ou le jeune ce qu’il appellera à la suite de Plant le « casual breakdown ». Il s’agit de repérer avec l’enfant ce qui a fait événement subjectif et qui a déterminé les actes par la suite. C’est une approche psychodynamique qu’il soutient très finement dans ce chapitre de la Section 3 de son grand manuel de pédopsychiatrie Child Psychiatry.

During the 1930s, '40s, and '50s, Leo Kanner's Child Psychiatry was the textbook of the field. All other books on child psychiatry were much more limited in scope and point of view; only Kanner's book had the comprehensiveness (and the format) that could stand in the same class as a textbook of medicine, surgery, or pediatrics. However, during the past 12 years, other child psychiatry textbooks have appeared, books which have compared more and more favorably with Kanner's especially in their having more current information; and as the years passed Kanner's last previous edition (1957) has seemed increasingly out of date.

Final Synthesis

Nearly everyone here, I imagine, has either been present at or has read the splendid Maudsley Lecture delivered in 1958 by Professor Leo Kanner (1). In this Lecture Kanner reviewed the various interests, or, as he called them, the loosely scattered segments which by their eventual convergence and fusion resulted in the emergence, between thirty and forty years ago, of child psychiatry. He caused them to pass before our eyes in a vivid and colourful procession—psychiatry, mental deficiency, education, criminology, psychology, psycho-analysis, the child guidance clinics, with paediatrics given a place of its own, though not allowed to march in the procession itself. Now, I have been asked to take up one or two of these segments for closer examination, and give some account of their contents and development during the pre-historic period before they began to converge towards their final synthesis. In so far as I am able to do this, my account will be merely factual; I must leave it to you who are engaged in this field of work to assess the relevance of the material which I am presenting.
