Mental health has become a global issue. Throughout both the
developed and developing worlds, the treatment and care of the
mentally disordered, and the need to improve the mental health of
all citizens, has become a major political and professional
concern.
This text sets out to monitor and analyse what supra-national
and national policies have been and are being implemented, and to
indicate what general themes and contradictions exist in the
delivery of these policies. The implications from this review are
then applied to professional practice - in particular that of the
psychiatric disciplines (psychiatry and mental health nursing).
A series of case studies from across the world is presented.
Each is written by a pre-eminent scholar in the field of mental
health policy within a selected country. The case studies have been
chosen on the basis of their geographical location to ensure that
there is a spread of exemplars from across the world and/or because
of a unique approach to managing the mentally disordered.
