Description
The International Journal of Law and Psychiatry is intended to provide a multi-disciplinary forum for
the exchange of ideas and information among professionals concerned with the interface of law and psychiatry. There is a growing awareness
of the need for exploring the fundamental goals of both the legal and psychiatric systems and the social implications of their interaction.
The journal seeks to enhance understanding and cooperation in the field through the varied approaches represented, not only by law and
psychiatry, but also by the social sciences and related disciplines. The Editors and Publisher wish to encourage a dialogue among the
experts from different countries whose diverse legal cultures afford interesting and challenging alternatives to existing theories and
practices. Priority will therefore be given to articles which are oriented to a comparative or international perspective. The journal
will publish significant conceptual contributions on contemporary issues as well as serve in the rapid dissemination of important and
relevant research findings.
The International Journal of Law and Psychiatry is published bimonthly in English; wherever possible,
translated articles are accompanied by an abstract in the original language. The views expressed in this journal do not necessarily reflect
those of the editors.
