Key problems of modern forensic psychiatry

Forensic psychiatry can be defined as a branch of medical science - psychiatry, whose task is to establish the mental state of a person in relation to certain legal norms and situations. Such a definition implies several main areas of activity of forensic psychiatrists and scientific research in this area. The inseparable connection between forensic psychiatry and general psychiatry, the impossibility of fruitful work of expert psychiatrists in isolation from the psychiatric clinic, without the use of an appropriate conceptual apparatus, without taking into account the development trends of diagnostics, therapy and organization, remains fundamental. Obviously, the specific tasks of forensic psychiatry at the present stage are directly related to the tasks of general psychiatry and a number of changing legal provisions, and complex integrative relations between psychiatry and law are necessary here.</jats:p
