Description
Growing insecurity and uncertainty seem to characterise the human condition at the end of the twentieth century. The contributors to The Politics of Attachment, edited by Sebastian Kraemer and Jane Roberts – are all distinguished authorities from a variety of backgrounds in public, professional and academic life – sharing a common conviction that we all have a powerful need to belong, to be attached to people, places and projects, and that social and political processes must reflect that. The writers draw on recent research and debate in developmental psychology and political science to provide a unique dialogue between the psychological and the social – a political grasp of ordinary human needs.
