Psychological and Self-Alienation is the second of three workshops of the project “New Thinking on Alienation”. The aim of the workshops is to explore, clarify and assess the usefulness of the concept of alienation and related notions in political, psychological and environmental contexts, whilst keeping in mind the exploration of an overall concept of alienation. Indeed, we shall be considering to what extent there is a determinate general concept of alienation, rather than a family of interrelated, yet context-dependent, notions of alienation.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
