The Politics of Psychiatry?: A Critical Examination of Seven Influential Sources in the History of Autism. (360G-Wellcome-104909_Z_14_Z)
This project critically examines the claims and context of seven influential sources in Autism's history and their impact upon scientific and public understanding. The goal is in each instance to distill scientific from rhetorical claims, document their disparate modes of acceptance, and make this distinction explicit. These sources are: (1) Leo Kanner's written corpus and affiliated records held by the Johns Hopkins University and the American Psychiatric Association. (2) Hans Asperger's surviv ing written corpus and affiliated records. (3) Uta Frith and Rab Houston's history of the 18th century Scottish court case of Hugh Blair of Borgue and the case itself held by the National Archives of Scotland. (4) Bruno Bettelheim's written corpus and associated records of the Orthogenic School held by the University of Chicago. (5) Bernard Rimland's written corpus and affiliated records. (6) Ari Ne'eman and related Autism activist's written corpus. (7) Laurence Mottron and related pro-Autism scientist's written corpus.
