We view the world in increasingly psychological terms, yet the discipline itself has been largely overlooked. In a series of essays covering issues from mental health to war, this book reflects on psychology, questions its relationship to power, and offers new perspectives.
From events in our everyday life to those which stride the international stage, we have come to view the world in increasingly psychological terms. In spite of this, beyond the wants, desires and motivations of the characters who form the centrepiece of these explanatory dramas, the discipline which constitutes the driving force behind the analyses has been largely overlooked. In a series of essays, covering issues from mental health to political governance and war, this book reflects on the nature of psychology as an intellectual endeavour, questions its relationship to the systems of power which shape our lives, and strays from the beaten track to offer new perspectives and voices.
