Opis

Observing the current manifestations of social behaviour, it can be seen that contemporary social relations are being built tenuously, where what reigns is the power that capital exercises over the other, in this context social relations are weakened and man becomes psychically ill, The transitions in ideologies brought about by the change in the civilisation process are gradually contributing to the advance of social compulsions. In this context, a critical look has come to my mind in order to understand how society becomes psychologically ill and suffers. These narcissistic and egocentric constructions are productions of "Social Illnesses". In this process of psychic suffering, this critical work arises that brings the gaze of Social Psychology as the majority assumption for this contemporary social analysis, while the theme is born from the a priori of understanding the influence of society on psychic illness and the reflections of these influences in our sick society.
