Abstract

Crisis is a common phenomena, which characterises life. The author talks about an “enlarged definition of crisis”. He is ori-entated at Hegels “economy as system of needs”. The author explaines “crisis” in it's complexity but mainly focuses on “capital” and “politics” as two main hot spots, which determine the precari-ous life situation of man. Psychotherapy can help people to retrieve a new image of a “satisfying life style” and to appeal to their con-text. The orientation at “the basic qualities of mankind” (hominity) then is a form of culture critiques. Keywords Precarious situation; capitalism, politics; technical ra-tionality; social stress; human therapy; the danger of psychologisation; hominity.
