Workshop : Writing the history of psychiatry after 1945
ULB – 30 and 31 May 2008Organisers: Volker Hess (Berlin/Charité) and Benoît Majerus (ULB)
The history of psychiatry in the twentieth century is characterised by an historiographic void compared with the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This post-1945 historiographic void has been cited frequently in recent literature and comprises the starting point for this workshop. It aims to present an overview of the current state of research and move beyond the narrow perspectives that characterises the history of psychiatry in terms of whiggish or cyclic (biological against social psychiatry) progression . This first workshop will focus on two questions: the chronologies and paradigms of current research.
