A radical and original study, The Political Psyche joins together depth psychology with politics in a way that fully reflects the discoveries made in analysis and therapy. Andrew Samuels brings an acute psychological perspective to political issues such as the distribution of wealth, the market economy, Third World development, environmentalism and nationalism--expanding and enhancing our conception of ``the political.'' However, keeping true to his aim of creating a two-way dialogue between show more depth psychology and politics, Samuels also lays bare the hidden politics of the father, the male body, and men's issues in general. show less
