Theories of Religion in Early 20th Century Psychology@Everything2.com - 0 views

  • Freud believed humanity is moving through three stages of development: Tribal, Religious, Scientific.  He believed society would eventually cast off the unnecessary and unfounded ideals of religion in trade for the exactitudes and truth offered by the scientific method.
  • Unlike Sigmund Freud, who believed religion to be an illusory wish fulfillment for the weak minded, Carl Jung advocated religion as an indispensable part of an individual's psychological development. Jung viewed the mind as having three components: the ego, the personal unconscious, and the collective unconscious. Freud's vision of the mind did not include a collective unconscious. Instead, Freud proposed a moral super-ego, which grew to become the mind's administrator according to a learned sense of morality. Jung believed the self-actualizing properties of Freud's super ego pre-exist in the mind as a collective unconscious which is to be discovered through introspection as opposed to learned from experience.

EBSCOhost: Radical deinstitutionalization: Rousseau versus Freud. - 0 views

  •  
    The book from which we read the discourse by Rousseau mentioned how his ideas had a substantial influence on psychological thought. This article from the Journal of Mental Health describes how his ideas about the natural man compare with Freud's and how both apply to whether or not state mental hospitals should exist. Very interesting.

Freud, "Civilization and its Discontents," 1930 (excerpt) - 0 views

  • If private property were abolished, all wealth held in common, and everyone allowed to share in the enjoyment of it, ill-will and hostility would disappear among men.
