MA C893ZP Jungian and Post-Jungian Studies
This module is designed to appraise the applicability of Jungian and post-Jungian modes of enquiry in diverse social and cultural fields with special reference to selected pressing problems in contemporary Western societies. Current controversies and debates will be presented for evaluation from the perspective of Jungian and post-Jungian psychology. The relevance of the epistemological, ethical and clinical positions developed within the Jungian and post-Jungian traditions for those working in other fields will be elucidated. The wide diversity of topics covered in this module is deliberate; it is intended to explore the broad applicability of these theories whilst at the same time to illustrate the methodology of how general principles are applied to social and cultural issues.
The aims of this module are:
- To provide an overview of applying Jungian and Post-Jungian ideas to elucidate debates in different academic disciplines.
- To provide students with the opportunity to apply Jungian and Post-Jungian ideas to understand cultural and political phenomena.
- To highlight the conditions needed for dialogue between analytical psychology and other disciplines to occur and to indicate where stubmling blocks may exist and how these impasses may be overcome.
- To enable students to creatively engage in a Jungian application based on their unique areas of interest.
By the end of this module, students will be expected to be able to:
- Critically assess the viability of applying Jungian and Post-Jungian ideas to elucidate debates in different academic disciplines.
- Critically apply Jungian and Post-Jungian ideas to understanding cultural and political phenomena.
- Discern the conditions for dialogue (between analytical psychology and other disciplines) to occur.
- Indicate where stumbling blocks may exist, and offer ways in which impasses may be overcome.
- Creatively engage in a Jungian application based on their unique areas of interest.
