- ‘Cultures of Harm in Institutions of Care’ is a special issue of the Social History of Medicine, 31.4 (2018), guest edited by Dr Louise Hide and Professor Joanna Bourke. It was based on an international, interdisciplinary conference of the same name which took place in 2016, also organised by Hide and Bourke. The issue was the first collection of work that set out specifically to provide historical perspectives on abuse and neglect across a range of institutions established to provide medical care and treatment for adults. Together, Hide and Bourke selected the seven submissions before liaising with the authors and journal editors. Laura Stark’s contribution ‘Contracting Health: Procurement Contracts, Total Institutions, and the Problem of Virtuous Suffering in Post-war Human Experiment’ was subsequently awarded the 2019 Eliot Freidson Outstanding Publication Prize from the American Sociological Association section on Medical Sociology. Hide and Bourke each produced their own individual c. 12,000-word articles for the issue. Hide was the lead organiser and guest editor. We are asking for Hide’s article on the effects of allowing the sexes to mix in large psychiatric hospitals in the post-war period (which resulted from two years of research into changes in hospital cultures supported by her own Wellcome funding) to be assessed alongside her co-written Introduction (5,000 words) and her overall editorial contribution.
Bourke’s article on ‘Police Surgeons and Victims of Rape’ is being submitted separately as a distinct output for consideration in this assessment.
The following were not edited by Hide and should not be considered part of this assessment: the two Sources and Resources articles (‘The Manchester medical manuscript collection’ and ‘The people’s chemist’;) the Essay Review; all the Book Reviews.
