The Spectre of the Other in Jungian Psychoanalysis: Political, Psychological, and Sociological Perspectives - Paperback

by Marybeth Carter (Editor), Stephen Farah (Editor)

This volume explores Jung's theories in relation to the concept of Other and in conjunction with the lived experience of it, while examining current events and cultural phenomena through the lens of Jungian and post-Jungian psychology, sociology, literature, film and philosophy.

The contributors examine global expressions of these various viewpoints, disciplines and life experiences and how cultural, political and sociological complexes evoke challenges as well as invitations to the idea of the Other from intersecting and convergent perspectives.

The Spectre of the Other in Jungian Psychoanalysis is timely and important reading for Jungian and post-Jungian analysts, therapists, academics, students and creatives.
