Description
Beyond the Anti-group: Survival and Transformation by Morris Nitsun explores the complex dynamics of groups, delving into their potential for destruction and survival. This thought-provoking analysis examines the interplay between anxiety, hostility, and creativity within and between groups, shedding light on the struggle to overcome group impasse and dysfunction. By drawing on group analysis and the Foulkesian tradition, Nitsun offers a critical framework that questions the relevance of traditional approaches in a changing world. This book is essential reading for psychotherapists, group analysts, and those working at the intersection of psychotherapy and the arts, as it provides new insights into the potential for groups to transform and create positive change. With its depth, breadth, and creativity, Beyond the Anti-group: Survival and Transformation stimulates readers to think critically about the role of groups in contemporary society.
