The organization has released several copyright-licenses known as Creative Commons licenses free of charge to the public. These licenses allow creators to communicate which rights they reserve, and which rights they waive for the benefit of recipients or other creators. An easy-to-understand one-page explanation of rights, with associated visual symbols, explains the specifics of each Creative Commons license. Creative Commons licenses do not replace copyright, but are based upon it. They replace individual negotiations for specific rights between copyright owner (licensor) and licensee, which are necessary under an "all rights reserved" copyright management, with a "some rights reserved" management employing standardized licenses for re-use cases where no commercial compensation is sought by the copyright owner. The result is an agile, low-overhead and low-cost copyright-management regime, profiting both copyright owners and licensees. Wikipedia uses one of these licenses.

History of psychiatric institutions

The rise of the lunatic asylum and its gradual transformation into, and eventual replacement by, the modern psychiatric hospital, explains the rise of organized, institutional psychiatry. While there were earlier institutions that housed the 'insane', the arrival at the answer of institutionalisation as the correct solution to the problem of madness, was very much an event of the nineteenth century.

To illustrate this with one regional example, in England at the beginning of the nineteenth century there were, perhaps, a few thousand "lunatics" housed in a variety of disparate institutions but by the beginning of the twentieth century that figure had grown to about 100,000. That this growth should coincide with the growth of alienism, now known as psychiatry, as a medical specialism is not coincidental.

Medieval era

In the Islamic world, the Bimaristans were described by European travelers, who wrote on their wonder at the care and kindness shown to lunatics. In 872, Ahmad ibn Tulun built a hospital in Cairo that provided care to the insane which included music therapy. Nonetheless, medical historian Roy Porter cautions against idealising the role of hospitals generally in medieval Islam stating that "They were a drop in the ocean for the vast population that they had to serve, and their true function lay in highlighting ideals of compassion and bringing together the activities of the medical profession."

Asylum

There's a poison running slowly through the veins
All reflections of the world have inflicted me with pain
And I'm moving on the winds and the winds are cold
I see the old ones carried to the grave
The young and blessed, they are born into the flames
And I'm moving on the winds and the winds are cold
I know the fools and the demons in disguise
All inside my heart to serve another lie
And the world spinning round, the wind so strong
Come here
Into the silence
Into the silence
Come here
Illusions of asylum
Oh it's your ivory soul
These are the trails who have come through a thousand times
These are the trails who have come through a thousand times
There's a poison running slowly through the veins
All reflections of the world have inflicted me with pain
And I'm moving through the winds and the winds are cold
Come here
Into the silence
Into the silence
Come here
Illusions of asylum
Come here
Into the silence
Into the silence
Come here
Illusions of asylum
Oh it's your ivory soul
Oh it's your ivory soul
