Antipsychiatry, without scruplousness and ebundant detalisation, could be reduced to two postulates: all the diseases and conditions, which are coded in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) with the “F” letter – present the result of the pathogenic character of the society. The society, however, has never been burdened with this guilt, and the psychiatry itself produces new diseases in order to “cure” those who are not in their place in the society and who don’t present the organic part of the commodity-money relations (but there is a small paradox: psychiatry is financed on the leftover principle and often doesn’t bring profits). This article describes the experience of a person with psychiatric diagnosis in Belarus.

Some US protests against sub-prime evictions in text and pictures

JAN/23/08 - Neighbors & supporters rallied in front of Melonie Griffiths-Evans Dorchester home to physically block an eviction by US Bank & Ocwen Financial. Like thousands in Boston and across the country she is facing foreclosure as a result of sub-prime predatory loans. The eviction was called off because of the protest leaving her and her three children in their house, but some 1500 local families still face a similar situation. The organization City Life/Vida Urbana plans to continue fighting evictions.
