Book excerpt: Fur die historische Entwicklung der Psychiatrie stellt das 19. Jahrhundert eine entscheidende Epoche dar. In dieses Jahrhundert fallen Prozesse und Ereignisse, die bis heute die Struktur und Ausrichtung des Faches massgeblich pragen: So ist die Entstehung der Psychiatrie als wissenschaftliche Disziplin und therapeutische Praxis mit der Tatigkeit von namhaften Psychiatern dieses Jahrhunderts, wie Reil, Heinroth, Jacobi, Griesinger oder Kraepelin, verbunden. Ebenso ist die feste Institutionalisierung des Fachs in staatlichen und privaten Versorgungseinrichtungen durch konkrete soziale, wirtschaftliche und politische Ereignisse des 19. Jahrhunderts massgeblich gepragt. Weiter steht das 19. Jahrhundert fur die 'Medikalisierung' des Faches und fur seine Abgrenzung sowohl gegenuber anderen medizinischen Fachrichtungen als auch gegenuber der Theologie und der Jurisprudenz. Schliesslich ist die Etablierung der Psychiatrie als universitares Fach - mit der Einrichtung von Universitatskliniken und ordentlichen Professuren - eine Entwicklung, die ihre Wurzeln und Bedingungsfaktoren ganz wesentlich in der zweiten Halfte des 19. Jahrhunderts im deutschsprachigen Raum hat. Uberblickt man den heutigen Stand der Psychiatrie in Deutschland, aber auch international, so wird deutlich, wie sehr das Fach von diesen historischen Vermachtnissen gepragt worden ist. Auch wenn das 20. Jahrhundert mit zum Teil fatalen und einschneidenden Ereignissen und Entwicklungen verbunden war, weisen die vorangegangenen Weichenstellungen doch auf eine uberraschende Aktualitat des 19. Jahrhunderts fur die Psychiatrie des 21. Jahrhunderts hin.

Download or read book Clinical Psychiatry in Imperial Germany written by Eric J. Engstrom and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The psychiatric profession in Germany changed radically from the mid-nineteenth century to the beginning of World War I. In a book that demonstrates his extensive archival knowledge and an impressive command of the primary literature, Eric J. Engstrom investigates the history of university psychiatric clinics in Imperial Germany from 1867 to 1914, emphasizing the clinical practices and professional debates surrounding the development of these institutions and their impact on the course of German psychiatry.The rise of university psychiatric clinics reflects, Engstrom tells us, a shift not only in asylum culture, but also in the ways in which social, political, and economic issues deeply influenced the practice of psychiatry. Equally convincing is Engstrom's argument that psychiatrists were responding to and working to shape the rapidly changing perceptions of madness in Imperial Germany. In a series of case studies, the book focuses on a number of important clinical spaces such as the laboratory, the ward, the lecture hall, and the polyclinic. Engstrom argues that within these spaces clinics developed their own disciplinary economies and that their emergence was inseparably intertwined with jurisdictional contests between competing scientific, administrative, didactic, and sociopolitical agendas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decades around 1900 were crucial in the evolution of modern medical and social sciences, and in the formation of various national health services systems. The modern fields of psychiatry and mental health care are located at the intersection of these spheres. There emerged concepts, practices, and institutions that marked responses to challenges posed by urbanization, industrialization, and the formation of the nation-state. These psychiatric responses were locally distinctive, and yet at the same time established influential models with an international impact. In spite of rising nationalism in Europe, the intellectual, institutional, and material resources that emerged in the various local and national contexts were rapidly observed to have had an impact beyond any national boundaries. In numerous ways, innovations were adopted and refashioned for the needs and purposes of new national and local systems. International Relations in Psychiatry: Britain, Germany, and the United States to World War II brings together hitherto separate approaches from the social, political, and cultural history of medicine and health care and argues that modern psychiatry developed in a constant, though not always continuous, transfer of ideas, perceptions, and experts across national borders.

Download or read book Philosophical issues in psychiatry III written by Kenneth S. Kendler and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-10-02 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychiatry has long struggled with the nature of its diagnoses. The problems raised by questions about the nature of psychiatric illness are particularly fascinating because they sit at the intersection of philosophy, empirical psychiatric/psychological research, measurement theory, historical tradition and policy. In being the only medical specialty that diagnoses and treats mental illness, psychiatry has been subject to major changes in the last 150 years. This book explores the forces that have shaped these changes and especially how substantial "internal" advances in our knowledge of the nature and causes of psychiatric illness have interacted with a plethora of external forces that have impacted on the psychiatric profession. It includes contributions from philosophers of science with an interest in psychiatry, psychiatrists and psychologists with expertise in the history of their field and historians of psychiatry. Each chapter is accompanied by an introduction and a commentary. The result is a dynamic discussion about the nature of psychiatric disorders, and a book that is compelling reading for those in the field of mental health, history of science and medicine, and philosophy.
Download or read book Madness Religion and the State in Early Modern Europe written by David Lederer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-05-04 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the ideological crucible of the Reformation emerged an embittered contest for the human soul. In the care of souls, the clergy zealously dispensed spiritual physic; for countless early modern Europeans, the first echelon of mental health care. During its heyday, spiritual physic touched the lives of thousands, from penitents and pilgrims to demoniacs and mad people. Ironically, the phenomenon remains largely unexplored. Why? Through case histories from among the records of over 1,000 troubled and desperate individuals, this regional study of Bavaria investigates spiritual physic as a popular ritual practice during a tumultuous era of religious strife, material crises, moral repression and witch hunting. By the mid-seventeenth century, secular forces ushered in a psychological revolution across Europe. However, spiritual physic ensconced itself by proxy upon emergent bourgeois psychiatry. Today, its remnants raise haunting questions about science and the pursuit of objective knowledge in the ephemeral realm of human consciousness.
Download or read book Work psychiatry and society c 1750 2015 written by Waltraud Ernst and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first systematic critical appraisal of the uses of work and work therapy in psychiatric institutions across the globe, from the late eighteenth to the end of the twentieth century. Contributors explore the daily routine in psychiatric institutions and ask whether work was therapy, part of a regime of punishment or a means of exploiting free labour. By focusing on mental patients’ day-to-day life in closed institutions, the authors fill a gap in the history of psychiatric regimes. The geographical scope is wide, ranging from Northern America to Japan, India and Western as well as Eastern Europe, and the authors engage with broad historical questions, such as the impact of colonialism and communism and the effect of the World Wars. The book presents an alternative history of the emergence of occupational therapy and will be of interest not only to academics in the fields of history and sociology but also to health professionals.
Download or read book Psycho Politics between the World Wars written by David Freis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the psycho-political visions and programmes in early-twentieth century Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Amidst the political and social unrest that followed the First World War, psychiatrists attempted to use their clinical insights to understand, diagnose, and treat society at large. The book uses a variety of published and unpublished sources to retrace major debates, protagonists, and networks involved in the redrawing of the boundaries of psychiatry’s sphere of authority. The book is based on three interconnected case studies: the overt pathologisation of the 1918/19 revolution led by right-wing German psychiatrists; the project of medical expansionism under the label of ‘applied psychiatry’ in inter-war Vienna; and the attempt to unite and implement different approaches to psychiatric prophylaxis in the movement for mental hygiene. By exploring these histories, the book also sheds light on the emergence of ideas that still shape the field to the present day and shows the close connection between utopian promises and the worst abuses of psychiatry.
Download or read book Psychiatric Institutions and Society written by Stefanie Coché and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book probes how the serious and sometimes fatal decision was made to admit individuals to asylums during Germany’s age of extremes. The book shows that - even during the Nazi killing of the sick - relatives played an even more important role in most admissions than doctors and the authorities. In light of admission practices, this study traces how ideas about illness, safety, and normality changed when the Nazi regime collapsed in 1945 and illuminates how closely power configurations in the psychiatric sector were linked to political and social circumstances.

Download or read book Diagnosing Dissent written by Rebecca Ayako Bennette and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although physicians during World War I, and scholars since, have addressed the idea of disorders such as shell shock as inchoate flights into sickness by men unwilling to cope with war's privations, they have given little attention to the agency many soldiers actually possessed to express dissent in a system that medicalized it. In Germany, these men were called Kriegszitterer, or "war tremblers," for their telltale symptom of uncontrollable shaking. Based on archival research that constitutes the largest study of psychiatric patient files from 1914 to 1918, Diagnosing Dissent examines the important space that wartime psychiatry provided soldiers expressing objection to the war. Rebecca Ayako Bennette argues that the treatment of these soldiers was far less dismissive of real ailments and more conducive to individual expression of protest than we have previously thought. In addition, Diagnosing Dissent provides an important reevaluation of German psychiatry during this period. Bennette's argument fundamentally changes how we interpret central issues such as the strength of the German Rechtsstaat and the continuities or discontinuities between the events of World War I and the atrocities committed—often in the name of medicine and sometimes by the same physicians—during World War II.
