Conscientious objection is a problem involving both personalities and society. It has important military, political, ethical, religious and sometimes psychiatric aspects. It is only where conscientious objection arises in a person who shows signs of psychiatric disorder that the psychiatrist has to take an active professional interest.

Thus this aspect of conscientious objection becomes a part of war psychiatry. My own interest in the problem was aroused by seeing a number of psychiatric patients who were objectors.
