Mental health and citizenship

Anne Rogers

David Pilgrim

The view that changes in mental health legislation and treatment advances have improved the status of mental patients as citizens is examined critic ally. Principles of civil and political rights set out by the United Nations and the National Council for Civil Liberties are used to facilitate this examination.This is followed by a discussion of the implications arising in the context of contemporary debates about community care. The disadvan tages of debating mental health policy only in terms of civil liberties are outlined.
