Description

This Routledge publication explores Kohut's self psychology and its application to contemporary American society, examining how the cultural emphasis on autonomous, self-sufficient individuals undermines the development of a vitalising self-structure. The author carefully analyses Kohut's texts to explain the structural, functional, and dynamic dimensions of his self concept, revealing how the self functions as an erotic striving for connectedness, beauty, and harmony. By bridging Kohut's foundational theories with modern social and psychological challenges, this book offers new conceptual frameworks for understanding the self and human community. It addresses the roots of contemporary mental illness and social malaise through the lens of self psychology, providing practitioners, students, and scholars with innovative approaches to psychological wellbeing and human connection in an increasingly fragmented world.

Key Features

Routledge publishes this comprehensive exploration of Kohut's self psychology theory and its relevance to modern psychological practice and social understanding.

The book carefully examines the structural, functional, and dynamic dimensions of Kohut's self concept through detailed analysis of his foundational texts.

Riker creatively extends Kohut's theory to reconceptualise the self as an erotic striving for connectedness, beauty, and harmony rather than isolated autonomy.

This work addresses how contemporary American emphasis on individual self-sufficiency contributes to mental illness and social malaise in fractured communities.

Part of the New Directions in Self Psychology series, offering advanced theoretical frameworks for psychoanalysts, therapists, and psychology scholars.
