Modern nationalism rests on principles of popular sovereignty, equality, and secularism. Citizens of the twenty-first century enjoy unprecedented freedom to become the authors of their personal destinies. Empowering as this is, it also places them under enormous psychic strain. They must constantly appraise their identities, manage their desires, and calibrate their place within society. For vulnerable individuals, this pressure is too much. Training her analytic eye on extensive case histories in manic depression and schizophrenia, Greenfeld contends that these illnesses are dysfunctions of selfhood caused by society's overburdening demands for self-realization. In her rigorous diagnosis, madness is a culturally constituted malady. 650 0 $a Mental illness $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Cultural psychiatry $x History. 650 0 $a Nationalism $x Psychological aspects. 650 7 $a Postmoderne. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Freiheit. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Selbstverwirklichung. $2 gnd 650 7 $a UÌberforderung. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Psychische StoÌrung. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Gesellschaftskritik. $2 gnd 650 12 $a Mental Disorders $x history. 650 22 $a Culture. 650 22 $a Ethnopsychology $x history. 650 22 $a Philosophy, Medical. 650 22 $a Psychology, Social. 650 7 $a Cultural psychiatry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00885048 650 7 $a Mental illness $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01016602 650 7 $a Nationalism $x Psychological aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01033847 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 856 42 $z Additional Information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?isbn=9780674072763 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826071819.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20150304010732.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41020BF4C23C11E493B6BB8BDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
