218: Where Psychiatry Meets Politics: The Goldwater Rule

Psychiatry & Psychotherapy Podcast

There is an extensive history of psychiatry and politics intersecting. Perhaps the most visible flashpoint occurred during the 1964 presidential campaign and gave rise to a movement in organized psychiatry that has resulted in issuance of formal ethical guidance (the “Goldwater Rule”). In this episode, Dr. David Puder and Dr. Mark Mullen discuss the pros and pitfalls of the Goldwater Rule and psychiatry's role in politics.
