This volume encompasses deeply critical dialogues that question how
the field of psychology exists within and is shaped by the current
neoliberal political context. Spanning from psychoanalysis to
post-colonial theory, these far-reaching discussions consider how a
greater ethical responsiveness to human experience and sociopolitical
arrangements may reopen the borders of psychological discourse. With
the understanding that psychology grows in the soil of neoliberal
terrain and is a chief fertilizer for neoliberal expansion, the
interviews in this book explore alternative possibilities for how this
field of study might function. By offering their own unique responses
regarding the current condition of their respective disciplines, these
scholars critically consider the current conceptual frameworks that
set the theoretical boundaries of psychology, and contemplate the
ethical responsibility currently affecting the field. This book will
prove essential for scholars and students across several disciplines
including psychology, philosophy, ethics, and post-colonial and
socio-cultural studies, as well as practising mental health
professionals with an interest in the importance of psychological
social theory.
