Keywords:
mental health, professional networks, welfare state.Abstract
In this paper, we attempt to analyzethe
developments of welfare state in European countries in
relation to social networks of professionalsaimed at caring for
eld erly people with mental health problems.We start with a
typology of the welfare state in Europe which has dominated
the current debate. We focus on (a) welfare reformation and
the values that characterize these reorganization (emphasis on
autonomy, problem atization of dependency, desire to improve
independent living, etc.), (b) certain social processes that
determine this change, (c) forms of organization of the socio
economic domain sanitary current (multiplication of local
networks and projects, decentra lization of services, criticism
of bureaucracy, improvement of the flexibility of care
services, etc.). Then we will analyze the organizational,
ideological and therapeutic issues of networking. Finally, we
will highlight the problems that arise, as a cons equence of
these issues.
The paper is based on data that has been drawn on the context
of a European program Erasmus+ entitled ARPA ageing.
