I will look at things like people’s early political memories, the sources of their political ideas and commitments, the level and nature of their energy for social and political causes, the construction of a ‘political journal’, the shadow aspects of their idealism – and maybe other things.

Many therapists are passionate about politics and issues of social justice. How useful is therapy thinking in terms of addressing political and social issues? Andrew has been writing about this for many years in books such as The Political Psyche and Politics on the Couch. In this webinar, he will look at issues such as leadership, violence and war, and ecopsychology. In particular, he will focus on economics and the question of inequality that is being much discussed at the moment. In May, Andrew had a letter published in The Guardian which we can discuss.
