Questions about what the term means relate to how the concept developed historically. We conduct a critical history of the concept to shed some light on this and inform contemporary practice.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To chart the history of co\u2010production focusing on co\u2010production in the design and delivery of mental health services; critically examining the extent to which the original egalitarian promise has been realised.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We draw on early foundational texts, key UK policy frameworks and legislation, mental health service user\/survivor movement accounts and more recent guidelines, using illustrative cases to critically examine the concept.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Early accounts from the US stressing reciprocity, shared power, and active citizenship directly influenced approaches to UK mental health services. Further accounts from the user\/survivor movement stressed the importance of power sharing and a critique of medical models of mental distress. UK policy frameworks and legislation have since brought co\u2010production from the margins to the mainstream, introducing a tension between a mainstream concept of co\u2010production influencing services through collaboration and a service user\/survivor concept of co\u2010production as equal power sharing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Historically there have been a range of conceptions of co\u2010production with different notions of what power sharing means for service users working alongside professionals.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Lived Experience or Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both authors have past lived experience of using psychiatric services.
