Spinoza's Political Psychology advances a novel, comprehensive
interpretation of Spinoza's political writings, exploring how his
analysis of psychology informs his arguments for democracy and
toleration. Justin Steinberg shows how Spinoza's political method
resembles the Renaissance civic humanism in its view of governance
as an adaptive craft that requires psychological attunement. He
examines the ways that Spinoza deploys this realist method in the
service of empowerment, suggesting that the state can affectively
reorient and thereby liberate its citizens, but only if it attends
to their actual motivational and epistemic capacities. His book
will interest a range of readers in Spinoza studies and the history
of political thought, as well as readers working in contemporary
political theory.
