Aquesta recerca té com a objectiu visibilitzar com, en el context contemporani de la salut mental, s'han generat múltiples propostes al voltant de la reivindicació de la bogeria des de perspectives feministes. Es compon d'un compendi d'articles on es descriuen formes de resistència i de construcció de coneixement diferents des dels sabers per experiència vinculats al malestar i la bogeria. Es reflecteixen, així mateix, crítiques antiracistes i anticolonials al voltant d'aquests processos. A nivell metodològic, es parteix de la investigació encarnada com una forma d'articular diferents posicions biogràfiques, subjectives, polítiques i materials com a conjunt de sabers que construeixen ciència i objectivitat en els termes feministes de democratització del coneixement. Com a tècniques per a l'anàlisi de dades s'inclouen també la revisió bibliogràfica, l'anàlisi temàtica i l'anàlisi historicocrítica. En termes de resultats es descriu, per una banda, com aquestes propostes són un desafiament a les nocions hegemòniques patriarcals de la salut mental, que donen continuïtat a la trajectòria del moviment feminista a la disputa pel camp teòric-pràctic de la salut i de politització del malestar. D'altra banda, es reflecteix un exercici crític davant de les epistemologies i moviments feministes, i també davant del propi moviment boig. Això darrer en tant es demana una revisió urgent tant del cordisme en els feminismes, com de la reproducció de la colonialitat en les resistències a l'expansió del dispositiu psi com a forma hegemònica de construir saber-poder sobre la bogeria i el malestar. Finalment, es reflexiona sobre diferents desplaçaments intersubjectius i materials en el procés d'investigar. La presente investigación tiene el objetivo de visibilizar cómo, en el contexto contemporáneo de la salud mental, se han generado múltiples propuestas en torno a la reivindicación de la locura desde perspectivas feministas. Se compone de un compendio de artículos donde se describen distintas formas de resistencia y de construcción de conocimiento desde los saberes por experiencia vinculados al malestar y la locura. Se reflejan, así mismo, críticas antirracistas y anticoloniales en torno a dichos procesos. A nivel metodológico, se parte de la investigación encarnada como una forma de articular distintas posiciones biográficas, subjetivas, políticas y materiales como un conjunto de saberes que construyen ciencia y objetividad en los términos feministas de democratización del conocimiento. Como técnicas para el análisis de datos se incluyen también la revisión bibliográfica, el análisis temático y el análisis histórico-crítico. En términos de resultados se describe, por un lado, cómo estas propuestas son un desafío a las nociones hegemónicas patriarcales de la salud mental, que dan continuidad a la trayectoria del movimiento feminista en la disputa por el campo teórico-práctico de la salud y de politización del malestar. Por otro lado, se refleja un ejercicio crítico ante las epistemologías y movimientos feministas, y también ante el propio movimiento loco. Esto último en tanto se demanda una revisión urgente tanto del cuerdismo en los feminismos, como de la reproducción de la colonialidad en las resistencias a la expansión del dispositivo psi como forma hegemónica de construir saber-poder sobre la locura y el malestar. Finalmente, se reflexiona en torno a distintos desplazamientos intersubjetivos y materiales en el proceso de investigar. This research aims to make visible how, in the contemporary context of mental health, multiple proposals have been generated around the claim of madness from feminist perspectives. It is made up of a compendium of articles where different forms of resistance and construction of knowledge are described from knowledge by experience, linked to discomfort and madness. Also, they reflect, anti-racist and anti-colonial criticism around these processes. At the methodological level, it starts from the embodied research as a way of articulating different biographical, subjective, political and material positions as a set of knowledges that build science and objectivity in the feminist terms of democratization of knowledge. As techniques for data analysis, bibliographic review, thematic analysis and historical-critical analysis are also included. In terms of results, it is described, on the one hand, how these proposals are a challenge to the patriarchal hegemonic notions of mental health, which give continuity to the trajectory of the feminist movement in the dispute over the theoretical-practical field of health and politicization of discomfort. On the other hand, it reflects a critical exercise in the face of epistemologies and feminist movements, and also infront of the mad movement itself. The latter, meanwhile it is demanded an urgent revision of both mentalism/sanism in feminisms, as well as the reproduction of coloniality in the resistance to the expansion of the psi device as a hegemonic way of building knowledge-power over madness and discomfort. Finally, it is offered some reflections on different intersubjective and material displacements in the process of this researching.

The research developed deals with mental health and its scope beyond the classic link with the problems of psychiatry. The starting point for this, is that mental health has taken and converted daily life into its object of examination, producing specific knowledge about itself and daily experience, developing also unique strategies of action. Its greatest achievement has been to formalize and stabilize a relationship between health and daily life that is novel and distinguishes it from other traditions that have dealt with insanity, mental illness or behavioral deviations, as well as various therapies that at different times and in every culture have been developed around the manifestations of discomforts. In this way, mental health emerges as a specific project of a particular epoch and logic. From this, the object of this thesis lies precisely in a double movement that institutes, on the one hand, mental health in an ontological register different from that of mental illness, and on the other, that decentralizes its object from the field of health care and restores it in the set of social relations. From these point, the thesis try to go further and argue that mental health is not only an original composition that articulates everyday life with a notion of health, but is a technology that seeks to institute a subject that is thought to Itself as part of a universal subject that transcends the local. If psychiatric power deals with the excluded and marginalized, mental health deals with integration, how to do and what to do to form a subject that can be made in the image and likeness of that humanity invoked in the concept of world citizenship that emerged in the postwar period and that offers a vanishing point to think mental health no longer exclusively referred to mental problems, but involved especially in the production of a new citizenship, and with this, in a unique way of composing the social, that I have called the technologies of ourselves. I have chosen two paths to address these problems. One where it was sought through a genealogical perspective, to give an account of how mental health emerges as a specific field acquiring a singular and proper form, the other, where using an ethnographic approach, attempted to explore how this entity operates as a matrix of intelligibility of daily experience, affecting the lives of people to establish standardized ways of relating to oneself and others.
