Between Families and Institutions

Mental Health and Biopolitical Paternalism in Contemporary China

Omschrijving

In contemporary China, people diagnosed with serious mental illnesses have long been placed under the guardianship of their close relatives who decide on their hospitalization and treatment. Drawing on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, Ma examines how ideological, institutional, and technological processes shape families’ complicated involvement in psychiatric care.
