The aim of this article is to examine the impact of some of the major European institutions on mental health law and policy formation, with a view to establishing whether or not the European 'project' has made a difference in protecting individuals with mental disorders from interference or neglect by national governments. The discussion is divided into two parts: first, the role of Europe in protecting the human rights of people with mental disorders through the work of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR); and second, the role of Europe in ensuring standards of mental health care through the work of the European Commission (EC) and the European Parliament (EP). Focusing in the first instance on cases brought before the ECHR, and in the second on the policy directives of the EC and the EP, it is clear that while in the area of protecting human rights, the European 'project' has indeed made a positive impact on national laws and procedures. However, in the area of monitoring and raising standards of mental health care, there is little evidence of a similar impact.

An exploration of the pages of two psychiatric hospital magazines, Speedwell from Holywell Hospital, Antrim, and The Sketch from Downshire Hospital, Downpatrick, reveals the activity filled lives of patients and staff during the 1960s and 1970s. This was a time of great change in mental health care. It was also a time of political turbulence in Northern Ireland. With large in-patient populations, both hospitals had a range of occupational and sporting activities available to patients and staff. The magazines formed part of the effort to promote the ethos of a therapeutic community. While hospital magazines may be viewed as one aspect of an institutional system that allowed people to cut themselves from the wider society, they also provided opportunities for budding writers to express their views on life in a hospital from the service user perspective. As such they offer some valuable insights into the lives of psychiatric patients.

Based on census materials collected in England and Wales from 1921 to 1991, this study focuses on gender differences in occupancy rates in hospitals and other mental health facilities in Britain. The results suggest that since 1991, or for the first time in the twentieth century, there are more males than females in residential mental health facilities in Britain. Furthermore, this pattern of association holds for all age groups except those aged 65 years and over. Second, there are currently two distinct subpopulations in mental health facilities—a male group which is predominantly of working age, and a female group, which is predominantly of retirement age. The existence of these two "care" populations will impact significantly on current and future resourcing of mental health services. The policy implications of the research findings are discussed within the context of the debates on the changing relationship between gender and mental health.
