The contribution examines the long and restless cultural iter that has led to the promulgation of the law 180/1978: from the caesura in psychiatry between the academicians' thought and the hospital workers' actions in the late 70's early 80's, going through the reference to the romantic and spiritualists "alienists" (psychiatrists preferred to be called in this way during the positivist age) supporting first places of care and rehabilitation by "moral" treatments and then the "mental hospital", centre of exclusion and mere custody, to the revolution made by F. Basaglia, that was inspired by the English psychiatry, although the Parisian intellectuals and the Jean Paul Sartre's existentialism have represented an essential reference. The works proceeds with a critical examination of the reform realized answering to the principal accusations that have been brought and it ends with a look at the future panorama of the psychic suffering management.
