- Summary:
- "In this video interview, Dr. Carol Gilligan reflects on feminism, emotional honesty, mother-child relationships, and how psychotherapy can combat the ills of patriarchy. Calling feminism "one of the great liberation movements in human history," Gilligan argues that not only is patriarchy alive and well, but our mainstream definition itself is flat-out wrong. Gilligan laments the negative impact women's conditioning toward selflessness has on both mother-child bonding and children's development of a strong sense of self. Over a series of brief, themed segments, Gilligan makes the case that patriarchal gender norms compromise our authentic expression and limit our capacity for real connection, leaving both women and men disconnected from their true feelings, their own sons and daughters, and the practice of democracy. By watching this video, you will gain an understanding of Gilligan's definition of "patriarchy"; learn how "patriarchical femininity" impacts families and children; and learn how psychotherapy can support women's empowerment. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions." Supplied by publisher
