Mental Health Provides a Comprehensive, Wide- Ranging, and Up-To-Date Portrayal of a Wide Variety of Critical Approaches Toward Psychiatry in a Global Context Review Copy – Not for Redistribution Bruce Cohen - University of Auckland - 9/19/17 ‘The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Mental Health provides a comprehensive, wide- ranging, and up-to-date portrayal of a wide variety of critical approaches toward psychiatry in a global context. It is an essential tool for all students, researchers, and clinicians who are interested in alternative models of the theory, history, politics, and professional practice of mental health and illness.’ Allan V. Horwitz, Board of Governors Professor Sociology, Rutgers University, USA ‘Bruce Cohen has brought together a wide variety of critical scholarship on mental health issues in this new Routledge Handbook. Anyone seeking an overview of the diverse and often contradictory sorts of critique of psychiatric orthodoxy that have developed in the past half century will find this a provocative and enlightening volume.’ Andrew Scull, Distinguished Professor of Sociology and Science Studies, University of California, San Diego i Review Copy – Not for Redistribution Bruce Cohen - University of Auckland - 9/19/17 Review Copy – Not for Redistribution Bruce Cohen - University of Auckland - 9/19/17 Routledge International Handbook of Critical Mental Health The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Mental Health offers the most comprehensive collection of theoretical and applied writings to date with which students, scholars, research- ers and practitioners within the social and health sciences can systematically problematise the practices, priorities and knowledge base of the Western system of mental health. With the con- tinuing contested nature of psychiatric discourse and the work of psy-professionals, this book is a timely return to theorising the business of mental health as a social, economic, political and cultural project: one which necessarily involves the consideration of wider societal and structural dynamics including labelling and deviance, ideological and social control, professional power, consumption, capital, neoliberalism and self-governance. Featuring original essays from some of the most established international scholars in the area, the Handbook discusses and provides updates on critical theories of mental health from labelling, social constructionism, antipsychiatry, Foucauldian and Marxist approaches to critical feminist, race and queer theory, critical realism, critical cultural theory and mad studies. Over six substan- tive sections, the collection additionally demonstrates the application of such theoretical ideas and scholarship to key topics including medicalisation and pharmaceuticalisation, the DSM, global psychiatry, critical histories of mental health, and talk therapy. Bringing together the latest theoretical work and empirical case studies from the US, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and Canada, the Routledge International Handbook of Critical Mental Health demonstrates the continuing need to think critically about mental health and ill- ness, and will be an essential resource for all who study or work in the field. Bruce M. Z. Cohen is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. He is the author of Mental Health User Narratives: New Perspectives on Illness and Recovery, Being Cultural and Psychiatric Hegemony: A Marxist Theory of Mental Illness.

SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW OVERRIDING MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT REFUSALS: HOW MUCH PROCESS IS “DUE”? SAMUEL JAN BRAKEL* and JOHN M. DAVIS, M.D.** ABSTRACT Getting mental health treatment to patients who need it is today a much belegaled enterprise. This is in part because lawmakers have a skewed view of the enterprise, in particular regarding the treatment of patients with antipsychotic medications. The properties and uses of these medications are misunderstood by many in the legal community, with the drugs’ undesirable side effects typically overstated and the remedial effects undersold when not outright ignored. One specific legal effect has been to accord to mental patients a substantively outsized right to refuse treatment that comes with a correspondingly action-stifling dose of procedural safeguards, this despite the patients’ frequent lack of capacity to exercise the right wisely and the bad personal and systemic consequences that flow from that.

  • Therapy with Leon Redler - a Story of Disillusionment
    Therapy with Leon Redler - a story of disillusionment Why I kept seeing him I 'saw' Leon Redler on and off over a period of about ten years. One of the puzzling questions for me is how Leon Redler managed to exert such a strong hold on me; essentially how could I have been so taken in by him as to persist in my belief that he was a wise and cogent person who "knew best" despite no resolution to my one stated problem which I "brought to therapy"? Looking back I notice that I never or hardly questioned him. On the few occasions that I did he was readily able to throw off my criticisms. For example, he was able to persuade me to have "family therapy", something which I had never asked for or intended and which when he first suggested it I strongly refused. Essentially though his hold over me is shown by the fact that I 'saw' him over a period of about 10 years on and off, spending a substantial part of a low income on the sessions, and yet got absolutely nowhere in terms of the one question which I first asked him about. This was in fact a quite normal question for a capable young man; “what should I do with my life”? After those 10 years I was trapped for a further 3 'seeing' his acolyte, a therapist in 'supervision' with him, whom he had "highly recommended" to me. (Therapy borrows its clothing from several fields in an attempt to present itself as professional and in line with normal Western standards.
