Description:

Human problems can be seen as “games without end; ” that is, as recurring behaviors based on the continuous application of rigid rules, but devoid of rules for the change of these rules. What are such “meta-rules” and how can they be introduced?

 

Educational Objectives:

1. To sketch briefly the fundamental contributions of Ludwig Wittgenstein, Gregory Bateson and Milton H. Erickson to this subject.
2. To present specific interventions (behavior prescriptions, therapeutic double-binds, positive connotations, reframing, and the “illusion of alternatives,” etc., by means of case descriptions, taped examples and role plays.
