Abstract
MGMH was created by reassembling psychiatric epidemiology, health
economics, health systems research, evidence-based therapeutics, lay
awareness, human rights, and sustainable development into an set of
policy instruments. I retrace the emergence and crisis of three “pillars”
of MGMH: epidemiology, economics of minds and moods, and the gap in
treatment provision. I argue that MGMH remains limited by its strategic
ignorance of flaws in the data, of paradoxical relations between economic
development and health improvement, and of how people actually seek
help in low income countries. I conclude by arguing that MGMH policies
are bound to fail if they fail to reckon with the contradictions in its
approach.
