Drawing on data from a recent study, and Freidson's theory of professional dominance, considers the contemporary nature of relationships between police officers and psychiatrists. The different strategies used by the two groups in attempting to control the management of a group of patients considered by both to be 'dirty work' is explored, as is the 'political' agenda of police/psychiatric relations in the context of current mental health policy.
