Quatrième de couverture : "aQuand une expression est largement utilisée dans les sciences de la santé, sans qu’on ne sache plus véritablement comment elle s’y apparente, à quoi elle renvoie spécifiquement et en quoi elle se différencie d’autres notions voisines et connexes, le moment est approprié pour la questionner, en faire le tour, analyser ce qui la fonde et participe ici à une sorte de sens commun. C’est notamment le cas pour la notion de " santé communautaire " qui se conçoit communément à travers un ensemble de repères établis, mais qui ne demeure pas moins équivoque sur le terrain des idées et des actions. Ce livre met à contribution la pensée et l’expérience d’acteurs issus d’horizons variés et se revendiquant de la santé communautaire. Au fil de 51 textes, 73 auteurs nous livrent leur conception de la santé communautaire. Alors que certains discutent des repères qui fondent selon eux cette idée, d’autres nous invitent à marcher dans leurs pas pour emprunter les chemins de leur pratique et pénétrer les univers qui composent le terrain de leurs actions. D’autres encore discutent de certains enjeux et défis que pose aujourd’hui la pratique de la santé communautaire. Nous retrouvons dans ces textes des acteurs et des penseurs issus de disciplines et de professions variées qui ont tous voulu témoigner de leur vision de la santé communautaire. Cet ouvrage s’entend dès lors comme une invitation à parcourir les voies tracées et sillonnées par ces auteurs."

The factions debating health care reform in the United States have gravitated toward one of two positions: that just health care is an individual responsibility or that it must be regarded as a national concern. Both arguments overlook a third possibility: that justice in health care is multilayered and requires the participation of multiple and diverse communities. Communities of Health Care Justice makes a powerful ethical argument for treating communities as critical moral actors that play key roles in defining and upholding just health policy. Drawing together the key community dimensions of health care, and demonstrating their neglect in most prominent theories of health care justice, Charlene Galarneau postulates the ethical norms of community justice. In the process, she proposes that while the subnational communities of health care justice are defined by shared place, including those bound by culture, religion, gender, and race that together they define justice. As she constructs her innovative theorization of health care justice, Galarneau also reveals its firm grounding in the work of real-world health policy and community advocates. Communities of Health Care Justice not only strives to imagine a new framework of just health care, but also to show how elements of this framework exist in current health policy, and to outline the systemic, conceptual, and structural changes required to put these justice norms into fuller practice.

The book relates the history of post-war psychiatry, focusing on deinstitutionalisation, namely the shift from asylum to community in the second part of the twentieth century. After the Second World War, psychiatry and mental health care were reshaped by deinstitutionalisation. But what exactly was involved in this process? What were the origins of deinstitutionalisation and what did it mean to those who experienced it? What were the ramifications, both positive and negative, of such a fundamental shift in psychiatric care? Post-War Psychiatry in the Western World: Deinstitutionalisation and After seeks to answer these questions by exploring this momentous change in mental health care from 1945 to the present in a wide range of geographical settings. The book articulates a nuanced account of the history of deinstitutionalisation, highlighting the constraints and inconsistencies inherent in treating the mentally ill outside of the asylum, while seeking to inform current debates about how to help the most vulnerable members of society.
