Marxist Psychology: A Short Introduction

Ulaş Başar Gezgin
4.9/5 (23390 ratings)
Description:In this book, Marxist psychology is introduced within a historical and theoretical context. ‘Which Marxism?’ and ‘which psychology?’ were the initial questions for discussion which brought responses related to historical personalities, movements, schools of thoughts, countries and subfields. Alienation, ideology and methodology were considered to be major themes for a Marxist psychology. “Why people don’t revolt?” is a central question in this context. The discussions revolve on various terms such as false consciousness, just world belief, ideology, hegemony and system justification. Although these are more or less conducive to explain people’s apathy, the book is not pessimistic at all. A related question is how consumer society and consumerism can’t be understood properly without elaborating on commodity fetishism and alienation. The book concludes with a discussion of the relevance of Ignacio Martín-Baró’s liberation psychology for our times and proposes 4 principles for Marxist psychology and healing: Deideologization, dealienation, defetishization and dehegemonization.
