Keeping the Myth Alive

This thesis explored the issue of coordination in the Belgian mental health sector, focusing on "network coordinators" introduced through public policies setting up local networks to counter fragmentation. Using a qualitative and ethnographic methodology, the author examined the work of these new professionals from four perspectives: instruments, practices, knowledge and experience. Describing the contours of a promising but unachievable mandate, this thesis explained the disillusionment that they experience. Finally, it took a critical look at these coordination initiatives by showing the rareness of the "successful coordinator" and highlighting the limits of the network model as it is currently conceived
