Speaker: Kieran Durkin, York University

Psychosocial Reading Group is an international once a month reading and discussion group that is run by Lynn Chancer and Neil McLaughlin with people participating by Zoom from Brazil, Canada, New Zealand and  other places around the world.  Our focus is on how to better understand social and sociological issues from points of view that are respectful of both agency and structure, and that take complex and non-reductionist  perspectives on the relationship between psyche and society when it comes to myriad contemporary problems from trauma to social movement.  We will also be taking up the rise of populism around the world from the standpoint of psychosocial and cultural perspectives: Neil and Lynn have just signed a contract for an edited volume on “The Authoritarian Turn” and we are interested in student involvement and possible writing and presentations related to the  Write to Lynn Chancer (lchancer@gc.cuny.edu) or Neil McLaughlin (celticspursbarca@gmail.com) if you are interested in being added to the listserve and wish to receive readings (and we will then send a zoom link).
