Sinopsis

A volume in Advances in Cultural PsychologySeries Editor: Jaan Valsiner, Aalborg UniversityThis book brings pragmatic theory and praxis into dialogue with contemporary psychodynamicideas, practitioners, and clinical issues. Generally considered as a historical footnote topsychoanalysis, the chapters in this volume demonstrate pragmatism?s continued relevance forcontemporary thought. Not only does pragmatism share many of the values and sensibilities ofcontemporary psychodynamics, its rich philosophical and theoretical emphasis on activemeaning making and agentic being in the world complements and extends current thinking aboutthe social nature of self and mind, how we occupy space in the world, non-linear development,and processes of communication.
