Up from Scapegoating: Awakening Consciousness in Groups

About this book

Up from Scapegoating is the first book that connects Jungian psychology and its usual focus on the individual and individual development to group theory and group development. Arthur Colman a pioneer in developing group relations theory and practice in the United States takes Jungs basic beliefs in the collective unconscious individuation and the shadow and shows their relevance to the problems of groups institutions and political systems. His insights and new methods are extremely important in a nuclear and environmental age where every individuals survival is hinged to the happenings or consciousness of a larger group.
