Richard Burgess presents a psychoanalytic viewpoint with its focus on the deeper causes of human behaviour.
Much has been written about the, cultural, political and sociological aspects of fundamentalism. But why are some people attracted to fundamentalist beliefs? What kind of inner worlds do fundamentalists have? Why might they become violent?
A psychoanalytic viewpoint with its focus on the deeper causes of human behaviour will be presented.
