Description
The British Psychological Society in Crisis: A Critical Account The BPS has been plagued by poor governance and corruption, leading to widespread disillusionment among its members. This crisis has resulted in individual groups forming outside the Society to protest against mismanagement and distorted priorities. A critical examination of the Society's recent history reveals a lack of democratic structures, compromised governance, and a managerial culture that disregards academic integrity. These weaknesses have led to policy capture by special interest groups, threatening public safety with poor psychological advice. This book sheds light on these issues, providing a platform for ordinary members who have been silenced by those in power. By exposing the cracks within the organisation, this book aims to bring truth to power and promote accountability.
