Culture Wars, Universities, and the Political Unconscious
by Robert SamuelsThis book argues that whenever we are talking about cancel culture, identity politics, political correctness, antisemitism, conspiracy theories, or the alt-Right, we are dealing with a culture war, which often pits two sides against each other in a split world of good and evil. These political representations rely on a set of unconscious processes best understand through psychoanalysis. As this book argues, if you want to comprehend the rhetoric of the Right, the Left, conservatives, and centrists, it is necessary to see how these ideologies rely on unacknowledged defense mechanisms, fantasies, fears, and desires. In fact, if we do not employ psychoanalytic concepts to examine our political investments, we will be unable to get to the root causes driving these social productions. Each chapter of this book looks at a specific writer‘s or politician’s take on contemporary culture wars. One of the reoccurring themes concerns the way free speech has been weaponized by different ideological formations, and this battle over free expression is often centered on the role that universities play in balancing the demands among competing social interests. This book will not only clarify what universities should be, but it will also help us to move beyond our polarized political world.
Religious Studies, Theology, and Human Flourishing (The Humanities and Human Flourishing)
by Justin Thomas Mcdaniel and Hector KilgoeReligious Studies, Theology, and Human Flourishing explores the implications of religious studies and theology for well-being, illuminating connections between theory, pedagogy, and practice with nuance and depth. Contributors to the volume, part of The Humanities and Human Flourishing series, construct and critique various conceptualizations of well-being and different approaches to its cultivation, both inside and outside of the classroom. From north India to the buckle of the American Bible Belt, the volume provides a variety of perspectives on approaches to the cultivation of well-being, including formations of the ideal life and the perfect death in antiquity and modernity in the Muslim world; constructions of existential meaning, purpose, and goodness in pastoral theology, care, and counseling; and skepticism surrounding understandings of religion and spirituality in positive psychology, among others.
A Family Guide to Coping with Substance Use Disorders (Treatments That Work)
by Dennis C. Daley Antoine DouaihyThe potentially devastating impact of substance use disorders (SUDs) on family and concerned significant others has been well-documented, but there is hope. Loved ones can learn strategies to help them cope with the impact of SUDs, and these strategies will in turn help them to support recovery efforts. Family-friendly and accessible, A Family Guide to Coping with Substance Use Disorders provides readers with important information on substance use, symptoms, causes, effects, and treatment. Written by experts in the field of addiction medicine, this book enables readers to understand substance use disorders from the perspective of their affected loved one, and provides a positive perspective emphasizing that recovery is certainly possible. Using real-world examples, the book illustrates how SUDs can impact family units and family members, including children, and then provides practical strategies for supporting a loved one with a SUD and for addressing its impact on readers' own thoughts, behaviors, and emotional states.

Tiefenpsychologische Bindungsanalyse: Modell und Methode – für ärztliche und psychologische Psychotherapeuten (Psychotherapie: Praxis)
by Bernd NockemannDiese Monografie wagt den Versuch, die Durcharbeitung der frühen, prägenden Bindungserfahrungen für das Setting der tiefenpsychologisch fundierten Psychotherapie zu erschließen. Der Autor lässt uns teilhaben an seinen Überlegungen zu einem streng naturwissenschaftlich gedachten Aufbau unserer aller Entwicklungs- und Veränderungsbedingungen, vom einfachen Reflex bis zur komplexen Bindungsbeziehung. Aus dem Inhalt: Die auffälligen Überschneidungen der Bindungstheorie und der Selbstpsychologie bilden den Kern der grundlegenden theoretischen Weiterentwicklung des psychodynamischen Modells. Mit den Begrifflichkeiten der Bindungstheorie gelingt es dem Autor, die Modellvorstellungen der Selbstpsychologie um entscheidende Elemente zu ergänzen. Psychodynamische Therapien werden mit der TBA überschaubarer, leichter zu handhaben (mit konkreten Fragen zur Bindungsgeschichte) und wirkungsvoller. Mit einem Geleitwort von Klaus E. Grossmann. Über den Autor: Bernd Nockemann ist niedergelassener Arzt für Psychosomatische Medizin und Psychotherapie in Radevormwald. Sein Anliegen ist, die Methode der Tiefenpsychologischen Bindungsanalyse den psychodynamisch orientierten Kolleginnen und Kollegen auf einer theoretisch gut fundierten und verständlichen Basis nutzbar zu machen. In seiner Freizeit liebt Bernd Nockemann Sport und das Zusammensein mit seiner Familie und Freunden am selbstgebauten Pizzaofen sowie die Interpretation gepflegter Polyphonie, von klassischen Oratorien bis Comedian Harmonists.
Modern Pupillometry: Cognition, Neuroscience, and Practical Applications
by Megan H. Papesh Stephen D. GoldingerPupillometry, the study of the eyes’ pupils, has a rich history, dating back to the 1800s. For example, to appear “dark with desire,” women once used atropa belladonna (deadly nightshade) as a cosmetic, because the atropine dilated their pupils, making them appear more romantically aroused. We now know that this relationship is largely driven by the activity of the sympathetic nervous system; specifically, a small brainstem nucleus known as the locus coeruleus (LC). Because of tight connections between the musculature of the eyes and LC, monitoring the pupils can reveal important insights into brain activity during mental processes. Many of these processes are related to attention and arousal (cognitive or emotional), with the LC controlling mental readiness via secretion of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine. While these complicated neurochemical processes happen in the brain, they are often overtly observable via pupil dilation. Although pupillometry was popular in the 1960s and 1970s, it fell out of favor until experiencing a renaissance approximately 10 years ago. With the advent of new eye-tracking and neural recording technology, measuring (and analyzing) pupil size is now easier than ever. Because all modern eye-trackers use pupil size in the calculation of gaze location, they also provide researchers with moment-by-moment pupil size measures in output files. Although previously considered “extra” data to support gaze location analyses, researchers have begun to conduct eye-tracking studies solely to gain access to pupil size data. These data have been used to study thought processes in many domains, including cognitive science, psychopathologies, business/marketing, security contexts, and the study of addiction. The diversity of interest in pupillometry is matched by the diversity in approaches taken to data collection, analysis, and interpretation. To date, there exists no book or tutorial review devoted specifically to ensuring that researchers carry out rigorous and reproducible work across these varied domains. Modern Pupillometry: Cognition, Neuroscience, and Practical Applications fills this gap by exploring the history, neuroscience, and methodological considerations of pupillometry research within and beyond psychology.
The World of the Japanese Mind: Conformity and Seken (SpringerBriefs in Sociology)
by Noriatsu MatsuiThis book investigates the source from which the pressure to conform arises in Japanese society. Even though the contemporary Japanese word for “society” (Shakai) has a history of 140 years, it does not include the concept of respecting the individual but refers mainly to social frameworks and institutional aspects. At the same time, the traditional Japanese terms for “society”, primarily Seken, that have been in use for 1,400 years have embraced human relationships of the members of the group.The hypothesis of this book is that there is no “society” as such in Japanese people’s minds. By proposing a new model (the Hand-Carved Tripod Model) of conformity in Japan, the book shows the structure of the pressure to conform. The tripod is composed of ambiguous words, the sense of belonging, and the “air”, or understanding, that represents the unwritten rules and regulations of Seken.Conformity in Japanese people’s minds takesdifferent forms, from small residential groups to corporations at work, and to nationwide associations, but always dictates that people follow everyone else in the organization.This book examines the sense of being blocked in Japan that has prevailed over 30 years, during the period of the so-called Three Lost Decades in Japan. Examining phenomena such as low worker engagement, karoshi (death by overwork), high middle-age male suicide rates, bullying in school and at work, sex discrimination, hereditary membership in the Diet, and failure to provide adequate protection for whistle-blowers, this book reveals a common structure in Japanese minds: lack of respect for individuality, and the traditional and narrow sense of the world, i.e., Seken.This book will be beneficial to scholars and graduate students as well as to businesspeople who are interested in understanding the behavior and minds of Japanese people from the psychological,cultural, and historical viewpoints. It provides an integrated view of Japan’s Seken as the platform that generates their conformity.
Leadership and Collaboration in Workplace Discourse: From Field to Application (Communicating in Professions and Organizations)
by Małgorzata ChałupnikThis book presents a comprehensive examination of how leadership and collaboration are discursively performed in professional communication, using real-world data from a UK public sector IT team. Taking an auto-ethnographic approach to workplace talk, the author examines the language involved in the performance of different team-based professional roles, examining how professional identity and relationships are indexed through casual face-to-face talk in an office environment. This investigation of how a group of people come together in an effort to achieve shared workplace goals relates to key debates in the area of professional communication, putting forward new theoretical and methodological frameworks for understanding and analysing how person-orientated aspects of professional communication shape discourses of work. This book appeals to a wide and interdisciplinary audience, including advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, academics and researchers specialising in applied linguistics broadly, and professional communication in particular, as well as consultants and practitioners working across a wide range of professional sectors.

A Human-Centered Perspective of Intelligent Personalized Environments and Systems (Human–Computer Interaction Series)
by Marko Tkalčič Panagiotis Germanakos Bruce Ferwerda Mark GrausThis book investigates the potential of combining the more quantitative - data-driven techniques with the more qualitative - theory-driven approaches towards the design of user-centred intelligent systems. It seeks to explore the potential of incorporating factors grounded in psychological theory into adaptive/intelligent routines, mechanisms, technologies and innovations. It highlights models, methods and tools that are emerging from their convergence along with challenges and lessons learned. Special emphasis is placed on promoting original insights and paradigms with respect to latest technologies, current research trends, and innovation directions, e.g., incorporating variables derived from psychological theory and individual differences in adaptive intelligent systems so as to increase explainability, fairness, and transparency, and decrease bias during interactions while the control remains with the user.
One Hundred Years of Argonauts: Malinowski, Ethnography and Economic Anthropology (Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and Economy #13)
by Chris Hann and Deborah JamesMalinowski’s Argonauts of the Western Pacific was a major contribution to anthropological theory and method, while simultaneously establishing the sub-field of economic anthropology. Even a century after its publication, Malinowski’s pioneering work remains critical for anthropology in a postcolonial age. This volume uses ethnographic studies from around the world to contextualize the work politically and intellectually, examining its gestation and influence from multiple perspectives. It critically explores the meaning of “economy” for Malinowski from his formation in the Austro-Hungarian Empire to his path-breaking fieldwork in Melanesia and ensuing career in London.
Gruppenerleben als Ressource: Einladung zum Perspektivenwechsel in Gruppenpsychotherapie und -selbsterfahrung (Psychotherapie: Praxis)
by Volker MünchDieses Fachbuch für Psychotherapeuten und Gruppentherapeuten regt den Leser, die Leserin entlang des eigenen Lebenslaufs an, eigene Gruppenerfahrungen neu zu reflektieren – und diese Einsichten in Beziehung zu Therapieprozessen zu setzen. Psychisches Leben und persönliche Entwicklung entsteht immer in Netzwerken. Analytische Gruppentherapie nutzt dies und macht psychische Vorgänge sichtbar, die in Einzelbehandlungen zu oft unklar bleiben. Unser Bild der psychischen Entwicklung des Menschen wandelt sich angesichts neurowissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse und vor dem Hintergrund komplexer gesellschaftlicher Herausforderungen unserer Zeit in ein Bild des Menschen als Social Animal. Wir sehen einen Aufschwung für die Gruppentherapie und eine Öffnung gegenüber Theorien, die unsere gegenseitige Abhängigkeit in einem positiven Sinn betonen. Zusammengehörigkeit und Solidarität können so gemeinschaftlich eingeübt werden und transformatorische Kraft für Veränderung beim Einzelnen, aber auch für dieGesellschaft entfalten. Viele lebensnahe Beispiele vor allem aus therapeutischen Gruppen illustrieren dies. Geschrieben für:Psychotherapeut*innen, Gruppenpsychotherapeut*innen, Gruppenleiter*innen im medizinischen und sozialen Bereich.Über den Autor: Dipl. Psych. Volker Münch, Psychologischer Psychotherapeut in eigener Praxis in München. Lehranalytiker, Supervisor und Dozent an der MAP, München.

Why Our Minds Wander: Understand the Science and Learn How to Focus Your Thoughts
by Arnaud DelormeWe all daydream; we've all experienced that moment when we suddenly realise that instead of paying attention in a meeting or reading a book, our mind has wandered. In that moment our conscious mind has detached from the current task at hand and drifted elsewhere.Our attention is a powerful lens which allows us to pick out and filter relevant details from the vast amounts of information our brains receive – so how does our brain decide where to go when it wanders, why does it focus on one thing over another? How important is daydreaming and why do we do it?Traditionally daydreaming was considered to be a single state of mind. However, recent research has shown that not only are there different states of daydreaming, these states are actually governed by different neurological pathways, meaning not all mind wandering is the same!Here, Arnaud Delorme PhD examines the science and theory behind why we daydream, examining its potential purpose. He shows you how to tame your 'monkey mind' and offers easy techniques that will enable you to develop the skill of mind wandering to improve your mood and foster greater creativity.
