Madness, Violence, and Power: A Critical Collection disengages from
the common forms of discussion about violence related to mental
health service users and survivors which position those users or
survivors as more likely to enact violence or become victims of
violence. Instead, this book seeks to broaden understandings of
violence manifest in the lives of mental health service
users/survivors, 'push' current considerations to explore the
impacts of systems and institutions that manage 'abnormality', and
to create and foster space to explore the role of our own
communities in justice and accountability dialogues. This critical
collection constitutes an integral contribution to critical
scholarship on violence and mental illness by addressing a gap in
the existing literature by broadening the "violence lens," and
inviting an interdisciplinary conversation that is not narrowly
biomedical and neuro-scientific.
