Excellent, I'll print this off, as I want to collect such articles to build a resource to try to argue against some of the negative effects of this ideology in e organisation in which I work.

In the trust where I work, we were told to treat "patients like cars" as this management theory stems from Toyota production systems. Adherents and promotors of this ideology can be rather messianic, and it is being rolled out massively in many trusts. I would love to read stuff on the impact on staff and their well being and the impact on how service users and their problems are constructed and responded to. Much has been written about from a critical and community perspective on the negative impact of psychiatric and individualist psychological perspectives on people labelled as having mental health problems, but I am struck by what appears to be a lack of commentary from such a perspective on such a huge and significant ideology which is coming to dominate much of mental health services. >> >> I am really looking forward to people's thoughts, as I feel very much on my own with these concerns >> >> Jane Mitchell >> >> >> Sent from my iPad >> >> On 21 Jun 2013, at 19:51, Paul Moloney <[log in to unmask]> wrote: >> >>> Dear All, >>> >>> Some of you might be interested to know that I've written a critical psychology book which has just been published. >>> >>> If you'd like to find out more, then you can get details from the website of the publisher, Pluto Press, by following the link below: >>> >>> http://bit.ly/12SAfGP >>> >>> Best Regards >>> >>> Paul >>> >>> >>> ___________________________________ There is a twitter feed: http://twitter.com/CommPsychUK (to post contact Grant [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe or to change your details on this COMMUNITYPSYCHUK list, visit the website: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=COMMUNITYPSYCHUK >> ___________________________________ There is a twitter feed: http://twitter.com/CommPsychUK (to post contact Grant [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe or to change your details on this COMMUNITYPSYCHUK list, visit the website: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=COMMUNITYPSYCHUK > > -- > ******************************************************** > John Cromby > Psychology, SSEHS > Loughborough University > Loughborough, Leics > LE11 3TU England UK > Tel: 01509 223000 > Personal webpage:http://www-staff.lboro.ac.uk/~hujc4/ > ******************************************************** > ___________________________________ There is a twitter feed: http://twitter.com/CommPsychUK (to post contact Grant [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe or to change your details on this COMMUNITYPSYCHUK list, visit the website: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=COMMUNITYPSYCHUK > <AD_CESR_Review_Jan_12.pdf> ___________________________________ There is a twitter feed: http://twitter.com/CommPsychUK (to post contact Grant [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe or to change your details on this COMMUNITYPSYCHUK list, visit the website: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=COMMUNITYPSYCHUK
