Human Rights and Wrongs in Psychology and Psychiatry

What do you do when there is no right answer?Often working in mental health, disability, broader health and social care fields, professionals are required to make complex decisions, where right course of action is not very clear.There are moments when personal values, professional ethics, national and international laws, and organisational policies collide and raise conflicts.In such moments, professionals are required to make difficult decisions while weaving through individual needs and institutional expectations as well as broader societal values. Human Rights and Wrong in Psychology and Psychiatry offers a unique approach to ethical decision-making - not through rigid rules or abstract ethical theories, but rather by presenting interdisciplinary and global perspectives.It urges practitioners to study how circumstances and positionality influence their perception of right and wrong.At the heart of the book is a practical, flexible framework for reflective practice.Readers are encour
