by Arthur D Colman
Arthur Colman, a pioneer in developing group relations theory and practice in the United States, takes Jung’s basic beliefs in the collective unconscious, individuation, and the shadow and shows their relevance to the problems of groups, institutions, and political systems. His insights and new methods are extremely important in a nuclear and environmental age where every individual’s survival is hinged to the happenings or consciousness of a larger group. Groups, just like individuals, become conscious and whole only by exploring their deepest, most profound elements-their victims and heroes, their scapegoats and messiahs.
