Alfred Adler and Contemporary Social Issues
Alfred Adler lived in a very turbulent time, spanning the World War I, great Depression, and the rise of Nazism in Europe. He and his family were affected by political and social turmoil in Europe and the US. That should explain how and why Adler’s theory, unlike all the rest of the psychological theories, sounds so social. After reading this week’s assigned articles and viewing the media, please reflect on how Adler’s Individual Psychology responded to the social processes of his time. You are to discuss the following:
Pick an issue that he has responded to (based on your reading and viewing)
Summarize your understanding of that social issue, Adler’s “response” to it via his theory
Briefly discuss how and why Adler would respond to one of the most socially pressing issues of today
Your post will be approximately 350 words. You need to use references. In your peer responses, please find an opportunity to validate (vs. praise) your classmates’ efforts and to take their discussion to a new level by asking questions, building on (vs. replacing) their efforts. You will also have to respond to your professor’s inquiries.
