Today more than ever, our understanding of ourselves, others and
the world around us is described in psychological terms.
Psychologists deeply influence our society, and
psychological-discourse has invaded companies, advertising,
culture, politics, and even our social and family life. Moreover,
psychologisation has become a global process, applied to situations
such as torture, reality TV and famine. This book analyses this
overflow of psychology in the three main areas of science, culture
and politics.
The concept of psychologisation has become crucial to current
debates in critical psychology. De Vos combines these debates with
insights from the fields of critical theory, philosophy and
ideology critique, to present the first book-length argument that
seriously considers the concept of psychologisation in these times
of globalisation.
The book contains numerous real-world examples making it an
accessible and engaging analysis that should be of interest to
researchers, postgraduates and undergraduate students of psychology
and philosophy.
