Abstrakt: Being part of the psychiatric practice, civil detention of patients in hospitals against their will remains difficult to assess clinically in regards to the role of social protection desired by our society. In this paper, the authors promote a broader understanding of the concept of danger that grounds the application of this civil commitment regime in order to fulfill both duty of intervention and promotion of values of beneficence and protection of patients.
