Re-Visioning Psychiatry explores new theories and models from
cultural psychiatry and psychology, philosophy, neuroscience and
anthropology that clarify how mental health problems emerge in
specific contexts and points toward future integration of these
perspectives. Taken together, the contributions point to the need
for fundamental shifts in psychiatric theory and practice: *
Restoring phenomenology to its rightful place in research and
practice * Advancing the social and cultural neuroscience of
brain-person-environment systems over time and across social
contexts * Understanding how self-awareness, interpersonal
interactions, and larger social processes give rise to vicious
circles that constitute mental health problems * Locating efforts
to help and heal within the local and global social, economic, and
political contexts that influence how we frame problems and imagine
solutions. In advancing ecosystemic models of mental disorders,
contributors challenge reductionistic models and culture-bound
perspectives and highlight possibilities for a more
transdisciplinary, integrated approach to research, mental health
policy, and clinical practice.
