Abstract
When asked what differentiates the Milan Approach now
from the period when Luigi Boscolo and Gianfranco
Cecchin were alive, the teachers at Via Leopardi remain
humble. This article aims to explore the current identity
of the Milan Approach. What is now the specificity of the
Milan model? Do we have particularities that differenti-
ate us from other clinical or therapeutic models? We still
work according to the notion of the observing system, and
we apply the three directives of the 1980s: hypothesizing,
circularity, and curiosity. Is there a specific direction in
which our approach is heading? Rather than attempting
to take a picture of a status quo, this article seeks to rep-
resent the questions and doubts that organize a constant
process in progress—as clinical work usually is. In this
article, we wish to underline some aspects that are impor-
tant to us and that we hold dear. We assert that the prem-
ises we have in common allow us to be flexible enough
to keep in tune with current events and to address social
issues that are of political relevance, in order to adapt to
cultural changes
