Since adoption of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities and the interpretive General Comment 1, the topic of
legal capacity in mental health settings has generated considerable
debate in disciplines ranging from law and psychiatry to public
health and public policy. With over 180 countries having ratified
the Convention, the shifts required in law and clinical practice
need to be informed by interdisciplinary and contextually relevant
research as well as the views of stakeholders. With an equal
emphasis on the Global North and Global South, this volume offers a
comprehensive, interdisciplinary analysis of legal capacity in the
realm of mental health. Integrating rigorous academic research with
perspectives from people with psychosocial disabilities and their
caregivers, the authors provide a holistic overview of pertinent
issues and suggest avenues for reform.
