The occurrence of violence is a true risk within the clinical relations involved in palliative care. The medical approach of the human crisis in which occurs the necessity of palliative care implies a drastic reduction of the existential dimensions of that crisis. The measurable biological aspects of the crisis are taken under consideration more easily than the “subjective” ones. Violence occurs in such a subject-destructive reduction. In that context, the caring human beings as well as the cared ones feel themselves as single wheels involved in a mechanical dishumanizing process. And therefore they consider themselves as discharged of any personal liability in this anonymized process. In order to palliate this paradoxal derivation of palliative care, we propose a renewed approach of violence phenomena in clinical contexts. This ethical approach is grounded on a philosophical elucidation of the subjective meaning of the dying process.
