Progressive psychoanalysis as a social justice movement /edited by Scott Graybow. - first unabridgedition. - [Place of publication not identified] : Cambridge Scholars Publishing, (c)2017. - 1 online resource

Includes bibliographical references.

This edited volume challenges our negative and incorrect definitions of psychoanalysis by focusing on the notion that psychoanalysis once was, and can once again be, a movement for social justice. Taking the work of Erich Fromm as a guide, the chapters in this volume highlight psychoanalysis' social justice origins, while illustrating how psychoanalysis - in both an interpretive role and as a clinical tool - can improve our understanding of contemporary social problems and address the effects of those problems within the clinical setting.
