Psychiatry Interrogated: An Institutional Ethnography Anthology de Bonnie Burstow

Psychiatry Interrogated: An Institutional Ethnography Anthology

Editat de Bonnie Burstow
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 noi 2016
This edited volume is an anthology of institutional ethnography (IE) inquiries into psychiatry—the first ever to be written.  It focuses on a large variety of different geographic locations and constitutes a major contribution to anti/critical psychiatry, as well as institutional ethnography.  Themes include the DSM, the use and protection of problematic psychiatric research, the penetration of psychiatry into the workplace. Adding depth and breath, the contributors, while all are schooled in IE, come from a large variety of walks of life, authors including: academics, psychiatric survivors, investigative reporters, activists, nurses, artists, and lawyers—each bringing their own unique expertise/standpoint to bear. The result is an intellectually rigorous book, contributions to several disciplines, ammunition for activism, and a compelling read that cannot be put down.

Recenzii

“Psychiatry Interrogated is a powerful and compelling work, that demonstrates how common reactions of the how-can-that-happen? variety can serve as springboards to unraveling and exposing the complex, repressive, and inherently destructive nature of psychiatry. Each chapter has an extensive reference list for those who wish to pursue any of the topics in greater depth. The book is dedicated to ‘everyone everywhere who has ever fallen prey to institutional psychiatry.” (Psychiatric Survivors, psychiatricsurvivors.wordpress.com, February, 2017)

Caracteristici

Rigorously researched but accessible book that will appeal to highly mobilized scholar-activist networks Timely addition to broader cultural conversation about the failures of mental health systems Use of institutional ethnography methodology provides more comprehensive critique of psychiatry than other similar titles
