Abstract
AbstractThis chapter traces the development of expertise about mental health from the early days of the asylum to the hopes and anxieties that are currently generated by the (upcoming) use of digital and AI-based technologies in the provision of mental healthcare. It highlights the trajectory that expertise about mental health has undergone from the focus on heredity in the nineteenth century to the more recent embrace of genetics. In so doing, it engages with the jurisdictional struggles that emerged between psychiatry, psychology, and other disciplines, and with the precarious state that characterizes the provision of mental healthcare in the US and France these days.
