Abstract:Since its creation two centuries ago, modern psychiatry has been torn between two main trends and two philosophies: on the one hand a medical and compassionate tendency of diagnosis and treatment, and on the other hand, a contribution to maintaining law and social order, and ensuring security for people and goods. The police and justice system provides prison or asylum for delinquents and deviants, and alienation or psychiatric confinement for the dangerously mentally sick. A whole philosophical and moralistic trend would like current psychiatry to be solely compassionate, empathic and therapeutic and to be unburdened of maintaining law and social order. It is not the role of psychiatrist to ensure security by detecting criminal dangerousness. But then whose responsibility would it be? Social workers, sociologists, police officers? The dividing line is vague. The so-called experts must decide what comes within the competency of the justice system, sentences and prisons and what comes within the abilities of psychiatry and psychiatric hospitals.
