Psychiatry in the GDR as a "niche" - Between adaptation and autonomy
CONCLUSION: Psychiatrists in the GDR could protect their patients through their actings and so Psychiatry could establish a "niche" for patients and employees. However, establishing such protected spaces required efforts in adaptation. In reverse, Psychiatry has also been politically instrumentalised - either directly through unjustified admissions and exit restrictions or indirectly by a stigmatization of dissenters and removing them from society.PMID:37931652 | DOI:10.1055/a-2186-3108
