| Summary, etc | The book "Subjectivity in Psychology in the era of Social Justice" by Morris et al. explores the concept of social justice in contemporary Western discourse, particularly within the context of education and psychology. The authors argue that social justice has become a pressing issue in the modern era due to the lack of equity and inclusivity in education, and the ways in which psychology has historically contributed to the marginalization of oppressed groups.<br/><br/>Drawing upon Lacanian theory, the book critiques diversity initiatives that take on an obsessive and neurotic quality, ultimately stifling those they claim to promote. The authors also investigate the anxiety around the performance of being socially just or "woke" and suggest how psychology can contribute to the development of socially just individuals through the promotion of interconnectivity and compassion.<br/><br/>Overall, the book offers a critical analysis of social justice and its relationship to psychology, calling for a more nuanced and compassionate approach to the development of socially just individuals. It will be of interest to scholars and students in various fields, including philosophical and theoretical psychology, critical psychology, social psychology, psychoanalysis, social work, and education. |
