Will Psychohistory Become a Relic of the 20th Century?
- Authors
Braun, Eldon M.
- Abstract
The article presents the author's reflections on the status of psychohistory as a field and in literature at the beginning of the 21st-century, suggesting that it is a fading aspect of the academic psychological discipline. Comments are given describing the author's engagement with the topic on the Internet regarding child abuse and the resistance given to him. Particular criticism is leveled against the writings of Lloyd deMause and compares them to that of the fiction of Garry Jennings.
