Abstract
This article brings together contemporary works by Frantz Fanon and Catalan exile psychiatrist Josep Solanes to consider the simultaneous emergence at the end of WW2 of discourses articulating the plight of refugees and racialized people through the medium of psychiatric discourses focusing on socially-inflicted mental pathologies of exile and displacement. Emphasing in particular their respective phenomenological approaches, it is argued that their trajectories can be attached to the same genealogy of radical psychiatry emerging in the Global North and then continuing into the Global South (Africa in the case of Fanon, Latin America in that of Solanes) where they were developed and made their impact.
