Madness and the demand for recognition: A philosophical inquiry into identity and mental health activism - International Perspectives in Philosophy and Psychiatry
Rashed, Mohammed Abouelleil (Wellcome Trust ISSF Research Fellow, Department of Philosophy, Birkbeck College, University of London and Visiting Lecturer, Department of Philosophy, King's College London)
Developments in mental health activism pose a radical challenge to psychiatric and societal understandings of madness. Mad Pride and mad-positive activism reject the language of mental 'illness' and 'disorder' and demand recognition of madness as grounds for identity. This book examines and responds to the claims and demands of Mad activism.
