Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS Hl0KR0x8. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Anti-stigma campaigns in the field of mental health appeared in a variety of countries and organizations during the 1990s. This paper examines one of these-the'Changing Minds'Campaign of the Royal College of Psychiatrists in Britain. The paper aims to elucidate the role the campaign played in the professional project of psychiatry and situate it in a wider context of both sociology and changes in mental health policy. The interest work involved is set in the context of the long-standing controversies surrounding psychiatric theory and practice, as well as the network of other agencies and actors seeking improvements in the citizenship of people with mental health problems in a post-institutional world. |
