This book explores the impact that politics had on the management of mental health care at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. 1888 and the introduction of the Local Government Act marked a turning point in which democratically elected bodies became responsible for the management of madness for the first time. With its focus on London in the period leading up to the First World War, the book offers a new way of looking at institutions and of considering their connections to wider issues that were facing the capital and the nation. The chapters that follow place London at the heart of international networks and debates relating to the finance of care, the development of architecture and scientific initiatives, as well as developing responses to the madness of immigrant populations. Overall, the book offers new insights into the relationships between care and other ideological priorities.
