In this volume, Klaus Holzkamp and his colleagues provide a
coherent and broadly elaborated description of Critical
Psychology--a theory of the evolution of the social constitution of
human consciousness and forms of mental activity--which has been in
development in Germany for more than twenty years and constitutes a
radical critique and reconstruction of scientific psychology from a
dialectical and historical- materialistic point of view. Its aim is
to provide a firmer foundation than presently exists for a
psychology that is methodologically sound, practically relevant,
and theoretically determinate. In this volume, Tolman and Maiers
coordinate the contributions of several German psychologists led by
Klaus Holzkamp and his colleagues. Infused with theoretical
sophistication, the papers detail the implications of Critical
Psychology on several fronts: a theory of emotions, forms of
psychotherapy, the impact of automation in the workplace, and a
theory of learning. Chapters build upon each other, going from
general issues of methodology to more specific issues. Critical
Psychology: Contributions to an Historical Science of the Subject
is the first book to make Critical Psychology accessible to an
English-speaking audience. As a central force in the exploration of
activity theory, this work will be of interest to cognitive
psychologists, developmental psychologists, social anthropologists,
and educators.
