What does the state build asylums for?

Our asylums are full of people who think they're Napoleon or God.

Reports from every private and public institute, as well as from municipal hospitals and asylums.

That's why all health care facilities, prisons, clinics and insane asylums must be encouraged to cooperate with us unequivocally.

To write about mental asylums, she feigned insanity so well that the doctors declared her certifiable. Then she went on to denounce the psychiatric treatments she endured, as reason enough for anyone to go crazy.

Otherwise, how could we account for the pictures we have seen of well fed and well equipped soldiers side by side with pictures of hospitals without medicine and essential equipment or pictures of abandoned mental asylums?

In this connection and as mentioned above, the Department of Cultural Linkage and Civic Participation (DGVCC) is conducting a special programme catering to groups with different disabilities and in disadvantaged situations in hospitals, prisons, social rehabilitation centres, asylums, etc.

You see, we also learn that experts are located, are governed, by the social and cultural norms of their times whether it be the doctors in Victorian England, say, who sent women to asylums for expressing sexual desire, or the psychiatrists in the United States who, up until 1973, were still categorizing homosexuality as a mental illness.
