What is the best way to understand the narratives of self-identity
at the beginning of the 21st century? This interdisciplinary
collection brings together perspectives from analytical psychology,
sociology, psychiatry, psychosocial studies, and psychoanalysis to
consider questions about individuation and freedom in our unhinged
world. The contributors discuss the meaning of, and need for,
individuation in individualized and liquid societies. The book
begins with a comparison of three approaches: C.G. Jung's
individuation, Ulrich Beck's individualization, and Zygmunt
Bauman's liquidity. This sets the tone for further consideration of
topics including guilt, social media, global nomads, and
surveillance. Theoretical reflections are enhanced by clinical
material, and the book emphasizes the connections between sociology
and psychoanalysis, offering significant insights into the
importance of psychosocial approaches. This timely work will be of
great interest to academics and scholars of psychosocial studies,
Jungian studies, sociology, and politics.
