Description
Caring for Souls in a Neoliberal Age by Bruce Rogers-Vaughn explores how contemporary capitalism affects social and psychological health. Drawing on interdisciplinary research, Rogers-Vaughn identifies a new form of human distress, 'third order suffering', which is increasingly intertwined with existing forms of misery such as sexism, racism, and class struggle. This book offers insights into the intersections between secularization, postmodernity, and capitalism, and how these concepts may divert attention from the material origins of contemporary social issues. Rogers-Vaughn also shares his clinical practice, providing clues for addressing 'third order suffering' and outlining a vision for caring in troubled times. By examining the impact of neoliberalism on human well-being, Rogers-Vaughn presents a thought-provoking analysis that sheds light on the complexities of modern society.
