abstract="Psychiatrists are increasingly expected to be involved in violence assessment, prediction, and prevention. For some psychiatrists this sits uncomfortably with their conception of themselves as doctors. Is violence (ever) a medical/psychiatric symptom? If so, what is the role of medicine/psychiatry in preventing violence? What are the consequences of an interventionist stance? We attempt to explore some of these questions in this paper.<p />",
