The Will in Modern Psychology
From WillProject
The following is based on work carried out by the co-creative group on the Will Project during the International Congress of Psychosynthesis in Canada from 11 to 15 September 1998. Initially this is provided to give some form of structure to pages. Please edit freely.
- Explore ways in which the popular literature (pop-psychology, self-help literature) is addressing the will (perhaps in different languages but corresponding to the will)
- Research and write about references to the will in main line, humanistic, and existential psychologies (including Rollo May, Otto Rank, Silvano Arieti, and William James)
- Develop a college course: Comparative Psychology of the Will Today
- Research the impact of culture on the will and the will's impact on culture
- Host an "ecumenical" round table on the will (including representatives of various schools of psychology)
