A Jungian lens on power, democracy, and collective life

Mino Vianello connects psychoanalytic ideas about the collective unconscious with a historical account of capitalism and political power from the Enlightenment to the present. The book frames empathy and individualism as competing forces in democratic life, while drawing on Marxism, class analysis, feminism, history, and political thought. Its proposed concept of “radical federalism” serves as a framework for reconsidering democracy amid what the author describes as a contemporary democratic crisis. Compact in length, this is an interdisciplinary study centered on how psychological and social forces shape political ideals and institutions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students and scholars of Jungian or psychoanalytic theory
  • Readers studying capitalism, democracy, and political history
  • Those interested in intersections of class, feminism, empathy, and power

Book overview

A Psychoanalytical-Historical Perspective on Capitalism and Politics explores how empathy once shaped the collective unconscious, before being replaced by rampant individualistic drive to power.

 

Mino Vianello uses "radical federalism" to define a new approach to democracy, hoping for an end to the repetition of outdated political and economic ideals to solve the world's democratic crisis. The book brings together a multitude of disciplines and perspectives, including Marxism, history, class, feminism, politics and empathy, to provide a comprehensive and honest history of power from the Enlightenment to the present day.

 

This interdisciplinary study will be key reading for academics and scholars of Jungian studies, politics, sociology, history and economics.
