Description



About the Book



There is a self-help industry built on the notion of becoming the person "we were meant to be." But what is the self at the core of such striving? This book answers that question by drawing on philosophy, psychology, various cultural traditions, and original research. The resultant method of mapping the self may revolutionize psychotherapy.



Book Synopsis



Il existe une industrie de développement personnel fondée sur l'idée de devenir la personne que « nous étions destinés à être », mais quel est le « soi » au coeur d'une telle lutte ?

Dans cet ouvrage, le soi, central dans certains concepts tels que l'estime de soi et la réalisation de soi, est cartographié en utilisant des unités élémentaires de culture appelées mèmes. Pour comprendre ce soi, nous revenons à la philosophie occidentale, aux écoles majeures de philosophie, à l'expérience interculturelle de soi dans les cultures collectiviste et individualiste, et à une recherche originale.

Onze soi représentant trois genres sont cartographiés, analysés et divisés en quatre groupes: 1) Les soi nord-américains construits dans la participation aux sports; 2) les soi centrés sur les notions nord-américaines d'autochtonie; 3) les soi d'individus engagés dans un paradigme humaniste séculier; et 4) les soi de Chine et de Russie. Deux méthodes d'autocartographie sont présentées.

Les résultats confirment l'hypothèse qu'un soi en santé ou fonctionnel se compose d'éléments fondamentaux, dont la constance, la volonté, l'unicité, la productivité, l'intimité et l'intérêt social.

Cet ouvrage intéressera les philosophes, psychologues, travailleurs sociaux, sociologues, et tous ceux qui se sont déjà demandé comment ils en sont arrivés à se définir eux-mêmes de la manière singulière dont ils le font.

Publié en Anglais.
