have you read Camille Robcis' book Disalienation? feel like it was a nice practical rescuscitation of the political ambition that flows from Tosquelles/Saint-Alban/the institutional more generally

i do wonder what is meant by "a psychiatry that existed only in terms of its integration with human geography" -- surely there is more there in human geography than the built environment -- were there interdisciplinary integrations too...?

at the time, this is a fairly important intervention -- Masson, the article later describes, also led the charge against the use of straitjackets on patients. but without knowing more, it also seems to presage stuff like eco-psychiatry, forest care, etc that can get a bit too naturalistic for me.

is it good?

Cesare Casarino makes this argument wrt how Spinoza uses and describes "concatenation"

didn't USC already reject?

my usual strategy is to reach out, offer extra support / talk through it, let them know that I understand lots of things are happening and I don't need to know the details but want to support. hasn't really worked out with many of them...

particularly beyond "real abstraction."
