Seeing a Brain Through an Other: The Informant’s Share in the Diagnosis of Dementia
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry - Tập 41 - Trang 541-563 - 2017
This article takes up the neuroscientific assumption of our brains as “solitary” and contrasts this understanding with the description of actual clinical practices. Drawing on observations of clinical consultations and team meetings in a world famous US center for the diagnosis of dementia, I examine how the “informant”, a member of the patient’s family, participates in the diagnosis process. Base......

“You would think she would hug me”: Micropractices of Care Between First-Generation College Students and Their Parents During Covid-19
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry - - Trang 1-22 - 2023
The Covid-19 pandemic has greatly disrupted the education of first-generation college students (first-gens)—those whose parents did not complete a college degree. With campuses closed, activities canceled, and support services curtailed, many first-gens have increasingly relied on their parents for mental, emotional, and logistical support. At the same time, their parents face compounding stresses......
Emplotting Hikikomori: Japanese Parents’ Narratives of Social Withdrawal
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry - Tập 40 - Trang 641-663 - 2016
Hikikomori, often glossed as “social withdrawal,” emerged as a sociomedical condition among Japanese youth at the end of the twentieth century, and it continues to fascinate and concern the public. Explanatory frameworks for hikikomori abound, with different stakeholders attributing it to individual psychopathology, poor parenting, and/or a lack of social support structures. This article takes an ......

Psychiatry, Law, and Revolution: A View from Egypt
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry - - Trang 1-19 - 2023
In 2009, Egypt adopted the “Law for the Care of Mental Patients,” a rights-based legislation intended to bring the country’s mental health system—otherwise defined by resource gaps and chronic underfunding—closer to global standards of care. Yet, the new act stirred dissension among Egyptian psychiatrists. And, in the immediate aftermath of the 2011 uprising, debates about the 2009 law became inte......
Situating Suicide as an Anthropological Problem: Ethnographic Approaches to Understanding Self-Harm and Self-Inflicted Death
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry - Tập 36 - Trang 183-203 - 2012
More than a century after Durkheim’s sociological classic placed the subject of suicide as a concern at the heart of social science, ethnographic, cross-cultural analyses of what lie behind people’s attempts to take their own lives remain few in number. But by highlighting how the ethnographic method privileges a certain view of suicidal behaviour, we can go beyond the limited sociological and psy......
Laboratory Happiness or Human Flourishing: The Empirical Science of Wellbeing in Phenomenological Perspective
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry - Tập 46 - Trang 115-138 - 2021
In this paper I analyze philosophically the dominant conception of happiness operative in the increasingly popular global movement to empirically define, measure, and promote human happiness: the idea of “subjective psychological wellbeing” (SWB). SWB is presented as an ethically and metaphysically neutral “scientific” view of the human good or wellbeing, grounded purely in empirical psychology, s......
