Party Or Patient Discursive Practices Relating To Coercion In Psychiatric And Legal Settings

This research explores the discursive practices surrounding coercion in psychiatric and legal settings, focusing on the tension between celebrating individual autonomy ('party') and the justification for interventions in mental health treatment ('patient'). It examines how language and power dynamics shape the understanding and application of coercive measures within these complex contexts, impacting patient rights and ethical considerations.
