Psychedelic Chile: Youth, Counterculture, and Politics on the Road to Socialism and Dictatorship
by Patrick Barr-MelejPatrick Barr-Melej here illuminates modern Chilean history with an unprecedented chronicle and reassessment of the sixties and seventies. During a period of tremendous political and social strife that saw the election of a Marxist president followed by the terror of a military coup in 1973, a youth-driven, transnationally connected counterculture smashed onto the scene. Contributing to a surging historiography of the era's Latin American counterculture, Barr-Melej draws on media and firsthand interviews in documenting the intertwining of youth and counterculture with discourses rooted in class and party politics. Focusing on "hippismo" and an esoteric movement called Poder Joven, Barr-Melej challenges a number of prevailing assumptions about culture, politics, and the Left under Salvador Allende's "Chilean Road to Socialism."While countercultural attitudes toward recreational drug use, gender roles and sexuality, rock music, and consumerism influenced many youths on the Left, the preponderance of leftist leaders shared a more conservative cultural sensibility. This exposed, Barr-Melej argues, a degree of intergenerational dissonance within leftist ranks. And while the allure of new and heterodox cultural values and practices among young people grew, an array of constituencies from the Left to the Right berated counterculture in national media, speeches, schools, and other settings. This public discourse of contempt ultimately contributed to the fierce repression of nonconformist youth culture following the coup.
Psychedelic Wisdom: The Astonishing Rewards of Mind-Altering Substances
by Dr. Richard Louis Miller• Reveals how these scientists, doctors, therapists, and teachers have applied their entheogenic experiences in their professions, leading to therapeutic advancements, scientific discoveries, and healing for thousands • Includes contributions from scientific psychonaut Amanda Feilding, psychedelic swami Dr. Allan Ajaya, &“America&’s Doctor&” Dean Edell, convicted psychiatrist Frederike Meckel Fisher, love doctor Charley Wininger, professor of psychedelics Thomas B. Roberts, ethnobotanical explorer Dennis McKenna, the &“Sunshine Makers&” Tim Scully and Michael Randall, as well as many others Over the past decade, many famous entrepreneurs and celebrities have begun to open up about their life-changing experiences with psychedelics that led to their personal successes. But less well-known are the wisdom-bringing psychedelic experiences of many top psychologists, psychiatrists, researchers, and others who have taken what they learned from their entheogenic experiences and applied it in their professions, leading to therapeutic advancements, scientific discoveries, and healing for thousands. In this profound book, Dr. Richard Louis Miller shares stories of psychedelic transformation, insight, and wisdom from his conversations with 19 scientists, doctors, therapists, and teachers, each of whom has been self-experimenting with psychedelic medicines, sub rosa, for decades. We hear from scientific psychonaut Amanda Feilding, founder of the Beckley Foundation; ethnobotanical explorer Dennis McKenna; research advocate and head of MAPS Rick Doblin; and the &“Sunshine Makers&”: Tim Scully, the scientist taught to make LSD by Owsley Stanley, and Michael Randall, the leader of the Brotherhood of Eternal Love. We learn about recasting &“bad trips&” as unfamiliar challenges from psychedelic swami Dr. Allan Ajaya, therapeutic uses of MDMA from &“the love doctor&” Charley Wininger, decades of insights from psychedelic professor Thomas B. Roberts, as well as several others. Revealing the psychedelic wisdom uncovered in spite of decades of the &“War on Drugs,&” Dr. Miller and his contributors show how LSD and other psychedelics offer a pathway to creativity, healing, innovation, and liberation.
Psychiatric Genetics: From Hereditary Madness to Big Biology (Genetics and Society)
by Michael Arribas-Ayllon Andrew Bartlett Jamie LewisPsychiatric genetics has become ‘Big Biology’. This may come as a surprising development to those familiar with its controversial history. From eugenic origins and contentious twin studies to a global network of laboratories employing high-throughput genetic and genomic technologies, biological research on psychiatric disorders has become an international, multidisciplinary assemblage of massive data resources. How did psychiatric genetics achieve this scale? How is it socially and epistemically organized? And how do scientists experience this politics of scale? Psychiatric Genetics: From Hereditary Madness to Big Biology develops a sociological approach of exploring the origins of psychiatric genetics by tracing several distinct styles of scientific reasoning that coalesced at the beginning of the twentieth century. These styles of reasoning reveal, among other things, a range of practices that maintain an extraordinary stability in the face of radical criticism, internal tensions and scientific disappointments. The book draws on a variety of methods and materials to explore these claims. Combining genealogical analysis of historical literature, rhetorical analysis of scientific review articles, interviews with scientists, ethnographic observations of laboratory practices and international conferences, this book offers a comprehensive and detailed exploration of both local and global changes in the field of psychiatric genetics.

Psychiatrische Kartierungen des Selbst: Rekonstruktionen adoleszenter Bildungsprozesse zwischen Familie und Jugendpsychiatrie (Rekonstruktive Bildungsforschung #44)
by Julia BecherMit einem stationären Aufenthalt in einer Kinder- und Jugendpsychiatrie sind jugendliche Patient:innen und deren Familien mit verschiedenen Herausforderungen konfrontiert: Neben der als ‚psychische Krankheit‘ gedeuteten Krisenkonstellation und damit verbundener Leiden sind es die mit der Einbindung in psychiatrische Institutionen verknüpften Positionierungen, (diagnoseförmigen) Zuschreibungen sowie (familialen) Erwartungen, Hoffnungen und Ängsten, mit denen sich Jugendliche vor dem Hintergrund adoleszenter Entwicklungs- und Individuationsprozesse auseinandersetzen müssen. Auf der Basis zweier Fallrekonstruktionen werden adoleszente Subjektbildungsprozesse im Spannungsfeld von familialen Dynamiken, gesellschaftlichen und insbesondere schulischen Transformations- und Normalitätsanforderungen sowie jugendpsychiatrischen Interventionen untersucht. Die Analysen stützen sich auf Interviews mit Jugendlichen und Familiengespräche, die im Längsschnitt durchgeführt wurden. Die qualitativ-rekonstruktive Studie leistet einen empirisch fundierten Beitrag zur sozialisations-, jugend- und familientheoretischen Frage nach der psychiatrisch moderierten und familial vermittelten Ver- und Bearbeitung psycho-sozialer Krisen in der Adoleszenz und der damit verknüpften (Re-)Strukturierung adoleszenter Selbstentwürfe.

Psychiatry and the Human Condition: A Scientific Biography of Silvano Arieti (1914–1981) (Springer Biographies)
by Roberta PassioneThis book is the result of extensive archival research conducted on the Collection “Silvano Arieti Papers” held in the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. It offers readers the first scientific biography of the renowned Italian-born psychiatrist Silvano Arieti, who in 1939 emigrated to the United States, where he gained fame and recognition for his work on schizophrenia. In 1975, the second edition of his book, Interpretation of Schizophrenia, received the National Book Award in Science.

Readers will find useful insights for a better understanding of psychiatry as a discipline capable of portraying the complexity of human nature.
Psychiatry in Crisis: At the Crossroads of Social Sciences, the Humanities, and Neuroscience
by Vincenzo Di Nicola Drozdstoj StoyanovThe field of academic psychiatry is in crisis, everywhere. It is not merely a health crisis of resource scarcity or distribution, competing claims and practice models, or level of development from one country to another, but a deeper, more fundamental crisis about the very definition and the theoretical basis of psychiatry. The kinds of questions that represent this crisis include whether psychiatry is a social science (like psychology or anthropology), whether it is better understood as part of the humanities (like philosophy, history, and literature), or if the future of psychiatry is best assured as a branch of medicine (based on genetics and neuroscience)? In fact, the question often debated since the beginning of modern psychiatry concerns the biomedical model so that part of psychiatry’s perpetual self-questioning is to what extent it is or is not a branch of medicine. This unique and bold volume offers a representative and critical survey of the history of modern psychiatry with deeply informed transdisciplinary readings of the literature and practices of the field by two professors of psychiatry who are active in practice and engaged in research and have dual training in scientific psychiatry and philosophy. In alternating chapters presenting contrasting arguments for the future of psychiatry, the two authors conclude with a dialogue between them to flesh out the theoretical, research, and practical implications of psychiatry’s current crisis, outlining areas of divergence, consensus, and fruitful collaborations to revision psychiatry today. The volume is scrupulously documented but written in accessible language with capsule summaries of key areas of theory, research, and practice for the student and practitioner alike in the social and human sciences and in medicine, psychiatry, and the neurosciences.

Psychische Gesundheit in der Arbeitswelt: Soziale und ökonomische Relevanz für Gesellschaft und Unternehmen (essentials)
by Nicole Susann RoschkerExperten weisen seit vielen Jahren auf die ökonomischen und sozialen Folgen hin, die für Unternehmen und Gesellschaft gleichermaßen durch die eklatante Zunahme psychischer Erkrankungen in Zusammenhang mit der Arbeitswelt entstehen. Gleichwohl gilt Gesund¬heit meist noch als rein private Angelegenheit, um die sich der Einzelne selbst zu kümmern hat. Doch Arbeitgeber spielen im Hinblick auf die Gestaltung der Arbeits-bedingungen eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Lösung des Problems. Die Publika¬tion legt dar, warum die Gefährdung der Gesundheit von Beschäftigten bereits jetzt ein Risiko¬potenzial darstellt, das nicht mehr ignoriert werden kann, und weshalb dies als gesellschaft¬liches und ökonomisches Issue Bestandteil der Unternehmens¬berichterstattung sein sollte.
Psychisches Leiden als Kriterium für Gesellschaftskritik: Grundlagen psychoanalytischer Sozialpsychologie im Lichte der Theorie Alfred Lorenzers (Frankfurter Beiträge zur Soziologie und Sozialpsychologie)
by Simon HeynyDie Beschäftigung mit psychischem Leiden ist im Alltag, in Wissenschaft und Öffentlichkeit zu einer Selbstverständlichkeit geworden. Diverse Studien untersuchen mögliche Ursachenzusammenhänge und diskutieren kontrovers das Verhältnis von psychischem Leiden und sozialen Bedingungen und Dynamiken. Simon Heyny untersucht in diesem Buch in interdisziplinärer Weise, ob und inwiefern psychisches Leiden als ein sinnvolles Kriterium für Gesellschaftskritik gelten kann. Auf grundlagentheoretischer Ebene und insbesondere im Rückgriff auf die Arbeiten Alfred Lorenzers werden dabei die Zusammenhänge von psychischem Leiden, sozialen Bedingungen und Dynamiken sowie Varianten der normativen Begründungen von Gesellschaftskritik analysiert. In Ergänzung zu den gängigen Themenfeldern wie Familie und Arbeit werden dezidiert auch migrationsspezifische Momente einbezogen und zur Veranschaulichung theoretischer Gesichtspunkte genutzt. Im Ergebnis wird eine integrative analytische Perspektive ausgearbeitet und für eine formale Ethik sozial vermeidbaren Leidens fruchtbar gemacht. Auf diese Weise wird ein Blick für die Interferenzen, Eigendynamiken und Transformationspotenziale von Psychischem und Sozialem eröffnet.
Psycho-Analysis and Social Psychology (Psychology Library Editions: Social Psychology)
by William McDougallFrom the Preface: ‘In these few lectures delivered in the University of London (May 1935) I have returned to the always interesting, but generally quite futile, task of criticizing the teachings of Professor Sigmund Freud and his school. On the present occasion my criticisms are made with ruthless frankness, in accordance with the policy I have recently adopted. I have realized too late that I might have done more for my chosen science, had I from the first spoken with a less modest voice.’ Originally published in 1936, two years before the author’s death, this title is a critique of the teachings of Freud and his school from a social psychology standpoint. It has several appendices which include the examining of ‘Totem and Taboo’ and the Oedipus complex.

Psycho-Social Approaches to the Covid-19 Pandemic: Change, Crisis and Trauma
by Anathasia Chalari Eirini Efsevia KoutantouThis book explores how meaning-making during the COVID-19 pandemic, and specifically during the period of the April 2020 lockdowns, may be derived from shared lived experience among participants, residing in diverse geographical regions. This study conducted 46 in-depth interviews with Greek participants residing in 13 district countries and 23 cities around the globe and argues that meaning making of the pandemic derives from shared lived experiences of radical change and everyday transformations, fearful as well as well as hopeful perceptions of crisis and trauma emerging through loss of life before the pandemic.

Psychoactive Drug Abuse in Hong Kong: Life Satisfaction and Drug Use (Quality of Life in Asia #11)
by Yuet Wah Cheung Nicole Wai-ting CheungThis book studies young people’s use of psychoactive drugs and its social and psychological correlates in Hong Kong. Specifically, it focuses on how life satisfaction may affect drug use among a sample of psychoactive drug users in Hong Kong. The book addresses the dearth of research on the role of young people’s life satisfaction in their drug abuse and engagement in other risk behaviors in Hong Kong. It also examines how changes in the drug scene from heroin addiction to psychoactive party drug use since the late 1990s has necessitated a deeper exploration of the subculture of young people, which shapes their attitudes and behaviors regarding how they structure their lives and how they perceive the risks of drug use, in the context of the global trend of normalization of recreational drug use. Readers will benefit from the results of a rigorous analysis of a unique set of longitudinal data that reveals the factors influencing drug use among young psychoactive drug users, academic implications of the findings for social science theory and research on young people’s drug use, and practical implications of the findings for prevention and intervention services for young people in Hong Kong and other Asian societies.
