Abstract

Insights revealed through post-Jungian psychology, like those from wisdom traditions, subordinate the visible and manifest to the invisible and unmanifest, and open learning to unimagined practices and potentialities. Of particular importance to education are the advances made during the last two decades by post-Jungian analysts, scholars, and activists who have explored the cultural level of the unconscious, including implications of cultural complexes, scapegoating, and the influence of conscious development of group psychic life upon the individual.
