摘要：This article offers a critique of the description of the autistic spectrum disorder as set forth in the fifth and most recent edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (dsm-5), the main tool used by many psychiatrists to understand and diagnose any psychopathology. The article seeks to show that the dsm-5, like the interpretations offered by Baron-Cohen, Leslie, and Frith, disregards the experience and the animated body of the patient, which makes it advisable to adopt a new approach to that disorder from a phenomenological perspective. The article concludes with a sketch of a phenomenology of the autistic spectrum disorder that recognizes the primacy of the animated body in the experience of the world, the self, and others.
