This book explains the ethical and conceptual tensions in the use
of psychopathy in different countries, including America, Canada,
the UK, Croatia, Australia, and New Zealand. It offers an extensive
critical analysis of how psychopathy functions within institutional
and social contexts. Inside, readers will find innovative
interdisciplinary analysis, written by leading international
experts. The chapters explore how different countries have used
this diagnosis. A central concern is whether psychopathy is a
mental disorder, and this has a bearing upon whether it should be
used. The book's case studies will help readers understand the
problems associated with psychopathy. Academics and students
working in the philosophy of psychiatry, bioethics, and moral
psychology will find it a valuable resource. In addition, it will
also appeal to mental health professionals working in forensic
settings, psychologists with an interest in the ethical
implications of the use of psychopathy as a construct and
particularly those with a research interest in it.
