Fading to the spine panel bright and clean internally. Wraps. "The psychiatric survivors movement more broadly consumer/survivor/ex-patient movement is a diverse association of individuals who either currently access mental health services known as consumers or service users or who are survivors of interventions by psychiatry or who are ex-patients of mental health services. The psychiatric survivors movement arose out of the civil rights movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s and the personal histories of psychiatric abuse experienced by some ex-patients. <br/><br/>The key text in the intellectual development of the survivor movement at least in the USA was Judi Chamberlin's 1978 text On Our Own: Patient Controlled Alternatives to the Mental Health System.Chamberlin was an ex-patient and co-founder of the Mental Patients' Liberation Front.<br/><br/>Coalescing around the ex-patient newsletter Dendron in late 1988 leaders from several of the main national and grassroots psychiatric survivor groups felt that an independent human rights coalition focused on problems in the mental health system was needed. That year the Support Coalition International SCI was formed. SCI's first public action was to stage a counter-conference and protest in New York City in May 1990 at the same time as and directly outside of the American Psychiatric Association's annual meeting.In 2005 the SCI changed its name to MindFreedom International with David W. Oaks as its director. <br/><br/>Common themes are "talking back to the power of psychiatry" rights protection and advocacy and self-determination. While activists in the movement may share a collective identity to some extent views range along a continuum from conservative to radical in relation to psychiatric treatment and levels of resistance or patienthood." wikipedia<br/><br/>Scarce with only 10 copies in OCLC.

1943277008Kamnik district Slovenia: Tehnika RK VI 1943. 30pp. 8vo mimeographed text with images original tan wrappers with mimeographed cover.<br/><br/> This rare surviving pamphlet from World War II was produced by the Yugoslav Partisans the most accomplished armed resistance movement against the Axis occupation of Europe. Starting out as a guerilla group the Partisans soon created a complete underground society based on Communist principles including schools government and medical institutions financial systems and publishing presses. This pamphlet produced by one such press likely hidden in the mountains or forests of Slovenia addresses an emergent need in such a new clandestine society: that for maps. It proceeds in logical order: geographical vocabulary instructions for making field maps and later more sophisticated and symbolic drafting techniques. Within this technical know-how it also communicates tactical military advice that the Partisan guerillas employed in their battles with Axis armies. This tactical quality of the publication is most in evidence in the pamphlets many striking diagrams which demonstrate the importance of visual knowledge in situations of survival.<BR><BR>This pamphlet was one of many Partisan publications designed to educate protect and encourage members of the movement. It is particularly fascinating for its simple means of production since the secrecy of Partisan operations limited them to mechanical methods such as mimeographs--in witness here--as well as heliotypes linocuts and typewriting. Given its fragility the pamphlet is in excellent condition with clean text. Slight stains and some very small tears in margins. As one of the few Partisan publications on cartography this pamphlet is a rare and fascinating record of the World War II resistance.<br/><br/> Tehnika RK VI unknown books
