Book The Master myth of Modern Society

Download or read book The Master myth of Modern Society written by G. Marian Kinget and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Master-Myth of Modern Society extends the late Dr. Kinget's life work as professor, psychotherapist, and author. Defining myth as a perennial psycho-social phenomenon that expresses an internal compulsion towards understanding the unknown, Kinget, one of the original humanistic psychologists, argues that the rhetoric, ideology, and mystique surrounding modern science constitutes the "master-myth" of our times. She evaluates "science as myth" in terms of both its beneficial effects and its debilitating qualities. Along these lines, Kinget views the notion of objectivity as an essential element of this myth, noting that the questions we ask and the answers we seek are constantly being reconstructed according to spiritual need. With a bibliography of time-honored authors, this short work can serve as a springboard for further exploration of human beings' traditional and modern mentality as expressed in myths, society, religion, and psychological queries. Relevant for understanding contemporary society, this book will be of value to students of psychology, sociology, anthropology, and integrated social sciences.

  • Author : Maritza Montero
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2009-04-28
  • ISBN : 0387857842
  • Pages : 310 pages

Download or read book Psychology of Liberation written by Maritza Montero and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid-1980s, the psychology of liberation movement has been a catalyst for collective and individual change in communities throughout Latin America, and beyond; and recent political developments are making its powerful, transformative ideas more relevant than ever before. Psychology of Liberation: Theory and Applications updates the activist frameworks developed by Ignacio Martin-Baro and Paulo Freire with compelling stories from the frontlines of conflict in the developing and developed worlds, as social science and psychological practice are allied with struggles for peace, justice, and equality. In these chapters, liberation is presented as both an ongoing process and a core dimension of wellbeing, entailing the reconstruction of social identity and the transformation of all parties involved, both oppressed and oppressors. It also expands the social consciousness of professionals, bringing more profound meaning to practice and enhancing related areas such as peace psychology, as shown in articles such as these: Philippines: the role of liberation movements in the transition to democracy. Venezuela: liberation psychology as a therapeutic intervention with street youth. South Africa: the movement for representational knowledge. Muslim world: religion, the state, and the gendering of human rights. Ireland: linking personal and political development. Australia: addressing issues of racism, identity, and immigration. Colombia: building cultures of peace from the devastation of war. Psychology of Liberation demonstrates the commitment to overcome social injustices and oppression. The book is a critical resource for social and community psychologists as well as policy analysts. It can also be used as a text for graduate courses in psychology, sociology, social work and community studies.

Book Introducci  n al asesoramiento pastoral de la familia AETH

Download or read book Introducci n al asesoramiento pastoral de la familia AETH written by Jorge E. Maldonado and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pérdida de valores morales que llevan a considerar todo desde una perspectiva groseramente relativista; la situación social y económica tan crítica que lleva a tratar de protegernos de cualquier manera posible; el materialismo contemporáneo que nos hace creer que teniendo más cosas seremos más felices; y otros muchos aspectos similares, han provocado una crisis que se refleja y tiene sus efectos en la pareja y familia contemporánea. La sociedad ha contagiado su enfermedad a la familia. Así pues, esta unidad básica sufre los devastadores efectos del tiempo y sociedad en que nos ha tocado vivir. ¿Hay algo que se pueda hacer? ¿Hay remedio que alivie esa enfermedad? El Dr. Maldonado nos muestra que para que la familia pueda procesar cualquier situación crítica que estén viviendo y salir avante por el camino de la recuperación y el crecimiento, la mayor parte del tiempo requiere de orientación, consejo, o asesoría. Así pues, y desde la perspectiva cristiana, en este libro el Dr. Maldonado presenta los elementos básicos de la asesoría, los criterios que servirán para identificar a una familia sana e ir hacia ella, y las metas que se deben perseguir al asesorar y que servirán al asesor o consejero para promover el sano crecimiento tanto de la pareja como de la familia. Porque, a final de cuentas, la familia no es solamente el lugar donde encontramos refugio y alimento. La familia, por sobre todo, es el lugar donde nos formamos como y donde somos verdaderamente humanos y cristianos.

Book Man s Search For Ultimate Meaning

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Viktor Frankl, bestselling author of Man's Search for Meaning, explains the psychological tools that enabled him to survive the Holocaust Viktor Frankl is known to millions as the author of Man's Search for Meaning, his harrowing Holocaust memoir. In this book, he goes more deeply into the ways of thinking that enabled him to survive imprisonment in a concentration camp and to find meaning in life in spite of all the odds. He expands upon his groundbreaking ideas and searches for answers about life, death, faith and suffering. Believing that there is much more to our existence than meets the eye, he says: 'No one will be able to make us believe that man is a sublimated animal once we can show that within him there is a repressed angel.' In Man's Search for Ultimate Meaning, Frankl explores our sometimes unconscious desire for inspiration or revelation. He explains how we can create meaning for ourselves and, ultimately, he reveals how life has more to offer us than we could ever imagine.

Book Psychotherapy and Unstable Notions of Masculinity

Download or read book Psychotherapy and Unstable Notions of Masculinity written by Del Loewenthal and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are our values as psychotherapists and clients regarding differing notions of masculinity? Furthermore, what stops us thinking about them? This book explores our thoughts and expressions about masculinity and determines whether they are inhibited and indeed prevented by cultural, social and intellectual forces. Leading exponents in this book explore psychotherapists and their clients’ issues of masculinity including - How tied up is masculine authority with suspect patriarchy? What might it mean to be strong enough to put a client, whether man or woman, first? To what extent can a psychotherapist’s resistance to changing notions of masculinity create a stumbling block for the clients? What is the relation of masculinity to changing notions of femininity and gender identities? What’s castration got to do with it? Can one be critical without being reactionary? What are the masculinities that psychotherapists encounter and what direction, if any, should psychotherapists encourage men and women towards? Through these questions and many others, this book contributes to the debates and therapeutic practices around masculinity and explores the biases and assumptions around gender and its social construct. This volume will be beneficial to professionals, academics, researchers, and students of Psychology, Psychotherapy, Counselling, Psychoanalysis and Gender Studies. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the European Journal of Psychotherapy & Counselling.
