Full textThis is a history between 1960 and 2000 of asylums operated in the United States for children labeled as “severely or profoundly mentally retarded,” and “emotionally and behaviorally disturbed.” I use one primary case study of the Willowbrook State School in Staten Island, New York. Willowbrook has already received some focus in the works of David and Shelia Rothman as well as Drs. David Goode, Darryl Hill, and William Bronston, and Geraldo Rivera’s newscast in 1972. Primary focus has been given to it because it is both unique and indicative of asylums across the U.S. during the mid 20th Century. It was unique in some of the severity of treatment, which its residents experienced, but overall mirrors national trends in brutal and neglectful living conditions. It also signals larger national trends in the mid to late 70s, which carry over into the 80s and early 90s as part of the deinstitutionalization movement. I find that this movement was largely a response to the conditions for which Willowbrook became a national symbol. Furthermore, even in the wake of the deinstitutionalization movement, there are many problems with federal and state policy that disproportionately disaffect people of color as well as poor people. Finally, I argue that the historical canon must expand somewhat to take into account Deleuze and Guattari’s ideas about Societies of Control. Many scholars, such as the Rothman, Tonya Titchkosky, Kim E. Nielsen, and others base their work on the Foucault’s notion of a ‘disciplinary’ society. But Deleuze (sometimes with Guattari) offers a sympathetic critique of Foucault’s understanding of discipline that adds a great deal of depth to the study of asylums and deinstitutionalization in the mid to late 20th Century.

Full textSouth Africa's health transformation blueprint is designed to replace apartheid's inequities and instill instead a new utilitarian approach by the health care sector. This study gives attention to the medical gaze and the body in hospitalisation. At macropolitical level the study focuses on the ways in which the new health policy impacted on power relations and multi-levelled subject positions of medical and nursing staff, as well as on patients in a hierarchy of spaces such as in the wards, in the institution and at a national level, in terms of policy implementation and the reconstruction of the health care services. It shows that policy and institutional discourses and arrangements were embedded in a regime of visuality which discursively homogenised people from different cultural realities. Yet, at the same time biases related to constructions of bodies in relation to class, age, gender and 'value' continued to exist. At the level of hospital protocols and structure the thesis examines the social, political and conceptual frameworks that conveyed, allowed or disallowed particular meaning to the institution. It describes the formal, dominant discourses and processes in the wards and show how these impacted on everyday interaction and relations of power, autonomy, authority, conflict and resistance. The study shows that for patients there often was a disjuncture between policy and practice, as biomedical practitioners and policy makers struggled to define the scope and implementation of health care services in response to pressures for change and concomitant fluctuation. By problematising the notion of the medical gaze and by giving attention to discourses and practices, which were not legitimated by it, the study draws attention to realities that were deemed largely irrelevant by western medical epistemology, such as subjective experiences and knowledge, which, though lacking the same legitimation as the gaze, did not disappear but only become less visible. In this way the study widens the social context in which medical practice can be perceived and understood within a transforming South African health care system.

Resumo: Devido ao fenômeno do envelhecimento populacional e a incerteza da existência de cuidadores para essa população nota-se um aumento na procura de Instituições de Longa Permanência para Idosos (ILPIs), popularmente conhecidas como asilos. Essa pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar as experiências de perdas e lutos vividas pelos idosos asilados, partindo do pressuposto que a elaboração do luto não é apenas necessária quando há a morte concreta de um sujeito. A própria entrada no asilo acarreta uma série de perdas que precisam de elaboração, como o rompimento de vínculos com familiares e pessoas próximas, afastamento do mundo externo, perda da casa e de objetos, perda da autonomia, entre outras coisas. Entendemos que a fala é uma importante via para a elaboração desses lutos, tanto de mortes concretas como de mortes simbólicas. Para isso, recolhemos narrativas de oito residentes com idades entre 62 a 93 anos, de uma forma em que eles pudessem contar e recontar suas histórias quantas vezes fosse necessário, de modo a colocá-los como protagonistas da própria vida. Realizamos uma inserção semanal na instituição asilar ao longo de oito meses como forma de estabelecer a manutenção dos vínculos com os idosos e a possibilidade de estar junto deles e oferecer uma escuta adequada. Utilizamos a psicanálise como referencial metodológico a fim de averiguar os processos de luto enfrentados por essa população no contexto asilar.

Abstract: Due to the populational aging phenomenon and the uncertainty of the existence of care takers for this population, we observe an increase in the search for Long-term care institutions for the elderly, largely known as nursing homes. This research take as na objective to analyze the grief and loss experiences undertaken by the institucionalized elderly, starting from the premise that grief elaboration is not only necessary in the concrete death of a subject. Even the entrance in a nursing home causes a series of losses that need to be elaborated, like the sundering of familiar and close persons links, the removal from the outside world, home and personal objects losses, autonomy loss, among others. We understand that the speech is a important way to elaborate those griefs, from concrete deaths as well as simbolic deaths. For this end, we gathered eight residents narratives, with ages between 62 and 93 years, in a way that they could tell and retell their histories as many times as was necessary, placing then as their own live's protagonists. Through 8 months, we made a weekly visit to the nursing home to estabilish and maintain links with the elderly and the possibility to be together and offer a proper listening. For this purpose, psychoanalysis will be used as a method in order to ascertain the processes of grief faced by this population in the nursing home context. In offering a sensible listening we could discover story that had the grief in his various expressions as the... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Full textThe Anti-Manicomial Project, with its intention of re-socialize the mental health user, deals with the sociability sharing which, in a contemporary thought, based mainly on the scientific culture. These symbols, created by a world interpretation system spread themselves to the social and turn to be expressed in daily men existence. The current research intends to analyze the acquaintanceship capacity with the mental health user, act as a madness social imaginary changer, defended by Franco Basaglia - precursor of the Italian Democratic Psychiatry. To this author, the re-insertion of the madman in the society that excluded him, can become a social conscious start emulousness. Therefore, a research of a therapeutic residence case, related to an Anti-manicomial Mental Health Institution, which the Therapeutic Residence Service Coordinator and community members that welcomed old mental hospital residents, were interviewed, pointing the narratives and images which build up sense and evaluate madness. It intends to contribute to a mental health system change which supposely, should work as a fuse of a socialization reflexivity, subsidizing, through reflections, the pedagogic- political possibilities of anti-manicomial interventions.

Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo refletir sobre variadas formas de abordagem do tema da loucura na literatura ficcional e na científica. Para tanto, foram consultados escritores que apresentaram em suas obras registros da demência, tratada segundo as concepções das diferentes épocas e dos contextos sociais e culturais em que se inseriam. Buscaram-se exemplares da literatura em que diversos critérios nortearam os diagnósticos de loucura, bem como o tratamento realizado. Considerando-se o papel da ficção ao apresentar a realidade temática, Machado de Assis, com o conto O Alienista, Guimarães Rosa com os contos “Sorôco, sua mãe e sua filha” e “Darandina” e Erasmo de Rotterdam com a obra: O Elogio da Loucura, que constituíram-se como rica fonte de reflexão e análise. Numa proposta interdisciplinar, foram solicitados para a fundamentação teórico-literária Alfredo Bosi, Antônio Candido, Affonso Romano Sant‟Anna, Bastos e Mikhail Bakhtin. Da literatura científica, buscaram-se as contribuições de Foucault, Amarante, Jung, Freud, Miranda e Canguilhem, Goffman e outros que trataram do tema da loucura, nas mais diversas nuances, dando consistência às percepções decorrentes deste estudo.
This research aimed to reflect on different ways of approaching the theme of madness in fictional and scientific literatures. Therefore, writers had been consulted on their deeds records of dementia, treated according to the concepts of different ages and social and cultural contexts in which they operated. We sought copies of literature in which several criteria guided the diagnosis of madness, as well as treatment. Considering the role of fiction to present the reality theme, Machado de Assis, with the story O Alienista, Guimarães Rosa with tales "Soroco, sua mãe e sua filha" and "Darandina" and Erasmus de Rotterdam with the work: O Elogio da Loucura, which were as rich source of reflection and analysis. In an interdisciplinary approach, were asked to theoretical and literary Alfredo Bosi, Antonio Candido, Affonso Romano Sant'Anna, Bastos and Mikhail Bakhtin. Scientific literature, sought the contributions of Foucault, Amarante, Jung, Freud, and Miranda Canguilhem, Goffman and others who have dealt with the theme of madness in various nuances, giving consistency to the insights derived from this study.

ABSTRACT: The development of ideas on deinstitutionalization of mental patients has a much longer history in the United States than is commonly acknowledged. Evidence of intense discussion on the rights of the mentally disturbed, curative as opposed to control measures in their treatment, and the drawbacks of congregating the afflicted in large institutions can be found as early as the middle of the 19th century. This discussion was provoked by dissemination of knowledge about the oldest community care program of all: the colony of mental patients in Gheel, Belgium. Based on document analysis of publications in the American Journal of Insanity from 1844 to 1921, this study attempts to trace how this discussion resulted in the first wave of deinstitutionalization in the American mental health care system, and the successful implementation of the alternative of hospital treatment.
ABSTRACT: My study further documents how the development of this program was inhibited by the need of psychiatry to attain professional legitimation. In its struggle to acquire public respect and occupational authority, the profession focused on somatic explanations of disease that could justify categorization of psychiatry as a branch of medical science. While this claim was not decisively supported by laboratory findings, or the ability to cure patients, psychiatry put forward genetic explanations of mental disorder. This took the profession to the extreme of the eugenics movement, and eventually positioned it as an institution of social control instead of medical authority. Having thus failed to achieve the ultimate professional legitimation in the medical field, psychiatry was exposed to a new wave of criticism in the 1960s, which led to the second wave of deinstitutionalization. History repeated itself with the same outcome.
ABSTRACT: In the absence of overall support within psychiatric circles, and a lack of appreciation of family care as a viable alternative to hospital treatment among social scientists, deinstitutionalization could not but fail again. The contribution of the study lies in the areas of deinstitutionalization, professionalization of expert labor, and the social construction of mental illness and deviance.

Full textasylum story is a short literary novel set in South Africa in the year 2019. The protagonist is infected with a deadly new respiratory disease and being held in a quarantine facility near a fictional town in the Karoo. The novel spans a six-month period during which the protagonist becomes involved in an ultimately failed attempt to escape. The novel is partly inspired by the Department of Health's decision in 2007 to place patients with drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis into quarantine. Many patients died in this enforced captivity. Conditions in some facilities were reportedly very poor and in 2008 there was a high-profile escape from the Jose Pearson quarantine facility. Though the disease in the novel is not drug-resistant tuberculosis, it is something similar, and the response to the fictional disease is comparable in some ways to the real-life medical response to the TB scare. The novel is set in a universe that is similar but different to our own, allowing the exploration of universal themes without the constraint of a rigid representation of current reality.

Full textThe present work stems from the questioning about perception, discourses and practices related to madness in the Brazilian context of the Psychiatric Reform, sustaining the hypothesis that there are obstacles in the relationship between those who join the anti-asylum thought and the so-called lunatics: obstacles supported by a clinical-political paradigm that we aim at investigating. The rationality that arranges this paradigm is the object of analysis from this research, which intends to retrieve movement and opening ideas involved in the main proposition of the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform for a society without asylums allying it to the idea of the coming community. Therefore, we present and discuss elements that compose and delimit anti-asylum thought: its foundations, narratives and practices - its ways of struggle. From this point, we have noticed that the denial of the asylum and the affirmation of a community-based mental healthcare in which fundamental aspects of the anti-asylum struggle articulate themselves offering contours to a thought that engenders specific ways of relating to madness. This articulation also produces boundaries: clear and precise ones that distinguish this ideal inclusive community from a society that marginalizes madness. The delimitation and recognition of these frontiers are important strategies because they enable to make visible and publicize the violence, the mistreatment and the exclusion of the asylum logic, thus conquering social support for the struggle. Likewise, a second conflict regarding boundaries arises, but this time in an opposite direction: the conflict is for the dissolution of the limits, for the abolition of the real and symbolic walls that segregate madness. It is in this drawing and erasing of lines that it would take root a society without asylums. The battlefield of this work, at last, locates itself also on these frontiers that, instead of erasing them or ensuring their configuration, aim to move them: walls, boundaries or limits, that as well as imprison or segregate, also welcome, hides and protect. Furthermore, even if they seem clear and precise, they are discontinuous and open lines, containing holes which also move and produce movements. It is in this change of perspective that we seek to mobilize the boundaries that define our struggles, our ideals of community and our ways of relating to madness in order to break away from their total forms
