Six Blind Jungian Monks Tackle  Questions of The Psyche, Politics and Culture of the Western World in the Era of Brexit, Trump, Immigration and other turbulent social/political events.

The Western world is besieged by rapid and frightening economic and social changes that are leaving many of its citizens feeling overwhelmed, confused and left behind.  In addition, the influx of immigrants from other parts of the world (from Syria and other countries of  the Middle East to Europe and from Mexico and other countries of Central America to the United States) raises vulnerabilities about basic safety, economic threat, and the clash of cultures.

In both America and Europe, these forces are deeply unsettling to those least able to adapt to change and most threatened by the loss of the world as they have known it.  Brexit in England and Trump in America are political examples of how disruptive these forces can be to the status quo.  For example, “Make America Great Again” is a perfect slogan to mobilize the yearnings and fears of many in America.

This webinar will offer a  wide ranging discussion of our contemporary psyche (s) and the political/social/cultural/economic/ shifts that are profoundly disruptive to all citizens.  With the American Presidential election about to take place, this is a perfect time to both dive into what is happening right now and to step back and reflect on its cause as well as on its destructive and perhaps less visible, its creative potentials.

On Wednesday, October 19th from 11:30 AM  to 2:30 pm Eastern time the Asheville Jung Center will be presenting an interactive web-based seminar discussing the current political climate in the US.  Participants will be asked a number of poll questions and be offered the opportunity to unmute their microphones for discussion or send written messages.  Please join us live or watch the recorded seminar!

Many questions emerge in such turbulent times and the panel includes representatives from the United States, Great Britain, Switzerland and Germany. some of the questions that will be explored in this wide ranging discussion include.... (Click here to go to the questions and find Registration Info)
