Description
Jungian Political Analysis addresses the question: in what ways can Jungian psychology contribute to an understanding of politics? Specifically, what are the explanatory concepts that I draw from analytical psychology? And, what political conditions do I select that invite understanding? These nine chapters present distinct socio-political contexts in which I explore answers. The sequence of chapters represents a progression in my understanding.
Explanatory concepts from analytical psychology: complexes (dissociation, repression, projection), persona, shadow, cultural complexes (collective trauma), narcissism (healthy and unhealthy), religious function, inflation, compensation, and individuation.
Political conditions: oppression and liberation, political consciousness, inter-ethnic strife, fanaticism, Islamism, political movements, welfare state policies, populist morality, neoliberalism, distributive justice, psychopolitical healing, and conspiracy theories.
