Routledge Neoliberalism, Ethics and Social Responsibility of Psychology

Explore the intersection of political structures and mental health in Neoliberalism, Ethics and the Social Responsibility of Psychology: Dialogues at the Edge. This volume from the Psychology and the Other series provides a deep look at how the current neoliberal political context shapes the field of psychology. Through a series of critical dialogues, the book examines how psychological practices exist within and contribute to neoliberal expansion. Readers will find discussions that span from psychoanalysis to post-colonial theory. These conversations look at how a greater ethical responsiveness to human experience and sociopolitical arrangements can help reopen the borders of psychological discourse. By understanding how psychology grows within neoliberal terrain, this book offers a way to rethink the relationship between the individual and the broader political world. It is an essential resource for those looking to understand the sociopolitical forces that influence modern psychological thought and practice.
