title: [Significant differentiation of the social psychiatry movement in capitalistic society. 1].
abstract: Rapid differentiations of the sociopsychiatric movement in the capitalist countries in general and in the Federal Republic of Germany in particular are closely related to different political concepts in reforming psychiatric care. One important group of psychiatrists consider the improvement in psychiatric care a major step in the direction of improving the social conditions of a capitalist system, striving to get the government's organizing help. Another group is formed by those experts who consider the abolition of repressive forms of therapy and, hence, the termination of the practice of regarding psychic disorders as medically relevant events to be prerequisite to radically improving the situation of mental patients. Essentially speculaiive interpretation results in an ideology of enlightenment that is without real consequences from a public helath and medical care point of view.
