This timely collection asks the reader to consider how society's
modern notion of humans as rational, isolated individuals has
contributed to psychological and social problems and oppressive
power structures. Experts from a range of disciplines offer a
complex understanding of how humans are shaped by history,
tradition, and institutions. Drawing upon the work of Lacan, Fanon,
and Foucault, this text examines cultural memory, modern ideas of
race and gender, the roles of symbolism and mythology, and
neoliberalism's impact on psychology. Through clinical vignettes
and suggested applications, it demonstrates significant
alternatives to the isolated individualism of Western philosophy
and psychology. This interdisciplinary volume is essential reading
for clinicians and anyone looking to augment their understanding of
how human beings are shaped by the societies they inhabit.
