Legislating or adjudicating in this area is like juggling on a tightrope; the acrobat must balance the interests and realities of law, psychia- try, politics, and culture, while walking a precarious line between protecting human rights and safeguarding against the potentially devastating effects of mental illness. The manner in which this balancing act is accomplished will depend on the characteristics of the juggler and the nature of the issues being juggled. A suc- cessful performance in one setting may be unpopular or unwork- able in another.
