Jungian and Dialogical Self Perspectives

In this original contribution to the psychology of personhood and to psychotherapy, an international cast of scholars and practitioners bring together cutting-edge work across two movements in the field: the long-standing community of Jungian psychology and related scholarship, and a fast growing community sharing an interest in the idea of the dialogical self.

This book provides insights into the history of ideas, clinical and research applications of these perspectives in both East and West. Individual chapters are written from Jungian, dialogical-self, or both perspectives, and address themes such as inner dynamics of individuation, self/society dynamics underlying identity formation, spirituality, and more.
