Cet article se fonde sur un terrain ethnographique de huit semaines en établissement public de santé mentale (EPSM) pendant lesquelles la sociologue a tiré parti de la période de stage d’observation relative à sa formation de directrice d’hôpital pour mener une enquête circonscrite à son établissement de stage, un centre hospitalier parmi les plus grands de France au regard de son budget et de sa file active, pratiquant la psychiatrie générale, la psychiatrie de l’enfant et de l’adolescent, ainsi que la psychiatrie de la personne âgée.
