Wenn Psychotherapie die Linderung von psychischem Leiden durch individuelle emanzipatorische Projekte verspricht, drängt sich die Frage auf, ob sie auch zur Entwicklung kollektiven Zusammenlebens etwas Positives beitragen kann. Durch eine doppelte Orientierung an der Kritischen Theorie und der philosophischen Anthropologie erhellen die BeiträgerInnen ideengeschichtliche Konstellationen, die bislang unbeleuchtet blieben. Mit Stimmen aus Theorie und Praxis machen sie deutlich, dass sich in der Kritik der Psychotherapie eine prononcierte Form der Gesellschaftskritik artikulieren kann.
