Abstract

Empowerment has achieved a prominent position in the doctrine of community mental health. This paper conceptualizes empowerment, describes its historical development in the field and its relation to power theory. While there has been a recent erosion of social-political forces enabling empowerment, we contend a legacy of empowerment will endure. Four examples of this legacy are discussed: (a)focus on social determinants of health; (b) development of conceptual models; (c) tolerance for professional self-reflection; and (d) growth of formal consumer controlled organizations.

摘要

赋权在社区心理健康学说中占据了显著地位。本文对赋权进行了概念化阐述，描述了其在该领域的历史发展及其与权力理论的关系。尽管最近有助于赋权的社会政治力量有所削弱，但我们认为赋权的遗产将持续存在。本文讨论了这种遗产的四个例子：（a）关注健康的社会决定因素；（b）概念模型的发展；（c）对专业自我反思的容忍度；以及（d）正式的消费者控制组织的发展。
