This book comprehensively discusses the background to the passing
of India's revolutionary Mental Healthcare Act, 2017, offering a
detailed description of the Act itself and a rigorous analysis in
the context of the CRPD and the World Health Organization (WHO)
standards for mental health law. It examines the fine balance,
between complying with the CRPD while still delivering practical,
humane, and implementable legislation. It explores how this
legislation was shaped by the WHO standards and provides insights
into areas where the Indian legislators deviated from these
guidelines and why. Taking India as an example, it highlights what
is possible in other low- and middle-income countries. Further it
covers key issues in mental health, identifying potential competing
interests and exploring the difficulties and limitations of
international guidelines. The book is a valuable resource for
psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, non-governmental
organizations and all mental healthcare workers in India and anyone
studying human rights law.
