Social Psychiatry
Excerpted from 'Creating Sanctuary: Toward the Evolution of Sane Societies' by Sandra L. Bloom, 1997.
Social psychiatry �is concerned with the relationships between mental disorder and sociocultural processes Alexander Leighton, 1960 in 'An Introduction to Social Psychiatry'
..."Developing his ideas in the first half of this century, �Moreno, the originator of psychodrama, said, �Mankind is a social and organic unity� . He termed his area of interest 'sociatry' and saw its aim as the healing of normal society. �Sociatry treats the pathological syndromes of normal society, of interrelated individuals and of interrelated groups. It is based upon two hypotheses: 1) The whole of human society develops in accord with definite laws; 2) A truly therapeutic procedure cannot have less an objective than the whole of mankind.� (Moreno 1953)."
