Opis

Based on a critical reading of Freud’s Civilization and Its Discontents, The Defiance of Global Commitment constructs a complex social psychology of how people all over the world are addressing globalization. Drawing on the latest advances in the cognitive, social, and complexity sciences, this timely volume presents a global model of defiance and the triangular tensions between nostalgic retreat, global aggression and civil society, as manifested in forms ranging from nostalgic resentment and LGBTQI issues to racism and ecological aggression.
