This book explores the trajectories of social suffering, exclusion, and victimisation of homeless persons with mental illness in India. It uses a Critical Ethnographic approach to study their lived experiences associated with downward mobilisation and the challenges in the process of recovery and empowerment.

Using theoretical and methodological implications, the volume highlights the experiences of this marginalised population through their voices instead of relying on epidemiological data only. It presents stories that show how such persons celebrate their abilities to tolerate all forms of ostracisation and endure their sufferings with fortitude. This book discusses how ‘hope’, as a part of their experience, catalyses the process of recovery and empowerment and helps them develop meaningful social ties to access valued social resources. It further brings to light the difficulties experienced by service providers in providing service due to a lack of resources and support at a systemic level and awareness about mental illness among various stakeholders.

This book will be of interest to students, teachers, and researchers of social psychology, clinical psychology, community psychology and sociology. It will also be helpful for academicians, policymakers, social workers, mental health practitioners, and NGO personnel.


这本书探讨了印度精神疾病无家可归者在社会受苦、被排斥和遭受被害的轨迹。它采用批判性人类学方法来研究他们与下流动员相关的生活体验以及他们在恢复与赋权过程中面临的挑战。 通过理论和方法论的影响,该卷通过他们的声音来展示这一被边缘化群体的经历,而不是仅仅依赖流行病学数据。它呈现的故事展示了这些人如何庆祝忍受各种排挤,并以坚韧不拔的态度面对苦难的能力。这本书讨论了希望作为他们经历的一部分如何催化恢复与赋权的过程,并帮助他们在建立有意义的社会联系中获取有价值的社会资源。 此外,该书还揭示了由于系统层面的资源和支持缺乏以及相关利益方对精神疾病的认识不足,服务提供者在提供服务时所遇到的困难。 这本书将吸引社会心理学、临床心理学、社区心理学和社会学领域的学生、教师和研究员。它也将对学术界人士、政策制定者、社工人员、心理健康从业者以及非政府组织员工有所帮助。
