About this title

Synopsis

The central object of analysis of this book is the treatment given by the current Brazilian legal system to the involuntary psychiatric hospitalisation of drug addicts, as well as the observance of the rules established around the issue when carrying out the forced treatment of these subjects. The study takes into account national and international standards, doctrine, jurisprudence, public policies and practices that take place in reality, revealing an interdisciplinary synergy between the fields of law, health, politics and social assistance. The research analyses the history of legislation and current regulations on the subject, explores the parameters for weighing up values in relation to the conflict between the right to life and the right to liberty, examines the network of out-of-hospital treatment that enables the subsidiarity of hospitalisation and addresses the issue of the human dignity of hospitalised patients and respect for their fundamental rights in places of treatment.
