dc.description.abstractIn this dissertation I have provided an academic interrogation of the gap between policy principles for comprehensive integrated primary mental health care in South Africa, and the implementation theoreof. I argue, theoreically, that the current add-on approach, which emphasizes care for patients with serious mental illness, will not achieve the vision for comprehensive integrated primary mental health care in South Africa. I suggest that this trajectory is a product of the reformist approach to the implementation of primary health care, and suggest that what is needed is a shift towards a comprehensive discourse of care at the primary level. My research aimed at developing an understanding of how such a shift could be achieved.en_ZA
