Abstract

L'Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique faisait l'archéologie du partage selon lequel, dans nos sociétés, le fou se trouve séparé du non-fou. Le récit s'achève sur la médicalisation de la folie au début du XIXe siècle. Le cours que Michel Foucault consacre à la fin de 1973 et au début de 1974 au «Pouvoir psychiatrique» poursuit cette histoire tout en infléchissant le projet: il s'agit ici de dresser la généalogie de la psychiatrie, de la forme propre de «pouvoir-savoir» qu'elle constitue. Pour cela impossible de partir de ce que serait un savoir médical sur la folie, inopérant dans la pratique. On ne peut rendre compte de la véridiction psychiatrique sur la folie qu'à partir des dispositifs et des techniques de pouvoir qui organisent le traitement des fous dans cette période qui va de Pinel à Charcot. La psychiatrie ne naît pas comme conséquence d'un nouveau progrès dans la connaissance sur la folie mais des dispositifs disciplinaires dans lesquels s'organise pour lors le régime imposé à la folie. Michel Foucault s'est souvent interrogé sur la vanité du discours des psychiatres, que l'on retrouve dans la pratique toujours contemporaine de l'expertise judiciaire. De ce point de vue, Le Pouvoir psychiatrique poursuit le projet d'une histoire des «sciences» humaines. Le cours s'achève à la fin du XIXe siècle au moment de la double «dépsychiatrisation» de la folie, dispersée entre neurologue et psychanalyste. Mais on trouvera dans le résumé du cours que Michel Foucault devait préparer pour l'Annuaire du Collège de France l'essentiel de ce qu'il n'avait peut-être pas eu le temps d'exposer dans ce cours. Si bien que Le Pouvoir psychiatrique va jusqu'à proposer une généalogie des mouvements anti-psychiatriques qui ont tant marqué les «sixties» du siècle précédent.

Abstract

'John W. Thompson: Psychiatrist in Shadow of the Holocaust' is the biography of a doctor whose revulsion at Nazi human experiments prompted him to seek a humane basis for physician-patient relations. As a military scientific intelligence officer in 1945, Thompson was the first to name "medical war crimes" as a special category for prosecution. His investigations laid the groundwork for the Nuremberg medical trials and for the novel idea of 'informed consent.' Yet, Thompson has remained a little-known figure, despite his many scientific, literary, and religious connections. This book traces Thompson's life from his birth in Mexico, through his studies at Stanford, Edinburgh, and Harvard, and his service in the Canadian Air Force. It reconstructs his therapeutic work with Unesco in Germany and his time as a Civil Rights activist in New York, where he developed his concept of holistic medicine. Thompson was close to authors like Auden and Spender and inspirational religious figures like Jean Vanier, founder of L'Arche. He drew on ideas of Freud, Jung, and Buber. The philosophical and religious dimensions of Thompson's response to Holocaust victims' suffering are key to this study, which cites accounts of psychiatrists, students and patients who knew Thompson personally, war crimes prosecution records, and unpublished personal papers. Paul Weindling is Wellcome Trust Research Professor at the Centre for Health, Medicine and Society: Past and Present, Oxford Brookes University, UK.

Abstract

Drawing on the work of Ludwig Wittgenstein and novelists such as Walker Percy, Paul Auster and Graham Greene, A Philosophical Disease brings to the bioethical discussion larger philosophical questions about the sense and significance of human life. Carl Elliott moves beyond the standard menu of bioethical issues to explore the relationship of illness to identity, and of mental illness to spiritual illness. He also examines the treatment of children born with ambiguous genitalia, the claims of Deaf culture, and the morality of self-sacrifice. This book focuses on a different sensibility in bioethics; how we use concepts, and how they relate to our own particular social institutions.

Abstract

"Antipsychotic medications are sometimes imposed on psychiatric patients deemed dangerous to themselves and others. This is based on the assumption that treatment is safe and effective, and that recovery depends on biological adjustment. Under new laws, patients can be required to remain on these medications after leaving hospitals. However, survivors attest that forced treatment used as a restraint can feel like torture, while the consequences of withdrawal can also be severe. A brave and innovative book, Tranquil Prisons is a rare academic study of psychiatric treatment written by a former mental patient. Erick Fabris's original, multidisciplinary research demonstrates how clients are pre-emptively put on chemical agents despite the possibility of alternatives. Because of this practice, patients often become dependent on psychiatric drugs that restrict movement and communication to incarcerate the body rather than heal it. Putting forth calls for professional accountability and more therapy choices for patients, Fabris's narrative is both accessible and eye-opening."--pub. desc.
