the 20th century the locus of care shifted from large institutions
into the community. However, this shift was not always accompanied
by liberation from restrictive practices. In 2014 a UK Supreme
Court ruling on the meaning of 'deprivation of liberty' resulted in
large numbers of older and disabled people in care homes, supported
living and family homes being re-categorized as 'detained'. Placing
this ruling in its social, historical and global context, this book
presents a socio-legal analysis of social care detention in the
post-carceral era. Drawing from disability rights law and the
meanings of 'home' and 'institution' it proposes solutions to the
Cheshire West ruling's paradoxical implications.
