Are Psychoanalytic Perspectives on Guilt Still Relevant in the Culture of Narcissism?

In this episode, Dr Carveth wrestles with the question: is Tragic Man Guilty? He then goes on to discuss the superego as aggression turned on self or deployed against scapegoats, and how authoritarians are marching under the banner of the superego. Dr Don Carveth works with Aodhán Moran to produce this podcast. Contact Aodhán for podcast production at aodhanpmoran@gmail.com.
