Neoliberalism, Ethics and the Social Responsibility of Psychology: Dialogues at the Edge (Psychology and the Other)

Neoliberalism, Ethics and the Social Responsibility of Psychology: Dialogues at the Edge is a critical and thought-provoking academic volume that examines the relationship between psychology, ethics, and modern political-economic systems. Part of the Psychology and the Other series, this book explores how neoliberal ideology influences psychological theory, clinical practice, and social behavior.

The book analyzes how neoliberalism—characterized by market-driven values, individual competition, and personal responsibility—affects mental health, identity formation, and social inequality. It raises important questions about the role of psychology in society: Should psychology focus only on individual wellbeing, or should it also address social justice, structural inequality, and community welfare?

Through interdisciplinary discussions, the book connects psychology with ethics, political philosophy, and social theory. It examines how neoliberal social structures can influence stress levels, workplace pressures, self-worth perceptions, and emotional wellbeing. Contributors discuss how psychological practices can sometimes unintentionally reinforce social inequalities if they ignore broader economic and cultural contexts.

A major theme of this volume is the social responsibility of psychologists. The book encourages professionals to reflect on ethical obligations toward communities, marginalized groups, and social justice movements. It highlights the importance of culturally sensitive practice, ethical research, and public mental health advocacy.

This volume is especially valuable for postgraduate students, researchers, clinical psychologists, social scientists, and policy professionals interested in critical psychology. It challenges readers to think beyond traditional clinical frameworks and consider psychology’s role in addressing global social challenges.

Written in a scholarly yet accessible format, the book combines theoretical discussion, ethical reflection, and practical implications for psychological practice in contemporary societies.
