Reflecting Critically on the Political Psyche : Therapy, Testament and Trouble in Psychoanalysis and Jungian Analysis

Omtale

With passion and originality, Samuels presents powerful material on culture and politics (including critical takes on ‘the Other’ and on political violence), and a compassionate account of the role of an individual when it comes to progressive politics. There are provocative accounts of what a critical psychotherapy might look like plus a section on Jung and ‘race’. In a clinical chapter, Samuels show us what he means by the dynamic concept of the ‘activist client’.
