Robert Castel: New Frontiers of Mental Health Medicine.
This study deals with the sociological significance of moving psychiatric practices out of the asylum into the community. After measuring the extent of this change through a thematic and critical analysis of recent publications in French, this article then discusses proposed interpretations. Contrary to the sociology of organizations which tends to treat the development of psychiatric structures in isolation, the author proposes recentering this problem area on a rigorous study of populations under care. Recent difficulties have arisen because new categories of patients have appeared. Not only their psychopathological but also their social, professional, geographic, demographic, etc., characteristics differ from those of former asylum inmates. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
