[At the Autumn Quarterly Meeting in 1978, the College passed a Resolution in which it reiterated ‘its concern over the abuse of psychiatry for the suppression of the dissent in the Soviet Union’ and also expressed its ‘admiration and support’ for, among others, Dr Alexander Voloshanovich ‘whose clinical reports have been invaluable for the brave work in Moscow of the Working Commission to Investigate the Use of Psychiatry for Political Purposes' (Bulletin, January 1979, p. 6–7).
