But this provocative book challenges that assumption. It argues that psychology, from its historical entanglements with eugenics and colonialism to its modern-day focus on individualism, has long served to reinforce the status quo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \n                \u003cp\u003eEven as many psychologists identify as politically liberal, the field’s methods, theories, and institutions often promote a worldview that downplays inequality, pathologizes dissent, and resists structural change. Psychology’s emphasis on personal responsibility, resilience, and self-help frequently aligns more closely with conservative ideals than with progressive ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \n                \u003cp\u003eThis book explores how the myth of a “liberal bias” in psychology has been weaponised in today’s culture wars — and how it distracts from the field’s real political blind spots. It asks: what would it mean for psychology to truly live up to its promise of promoting human welfare?\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \n                \u003cp\u003e\n                                        Accessible, deeply researched, and sharply argued, \n                    \n                    \u003cem\u003ePsychology’s Quiet Conservatism\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                         is essential reading for anyone interested in how science shapes society — and how society shapes science.\n                \n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783032077233\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow a Supposedly Woke Science Promotes Capitalism and Protects Privilege\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783032077233","offer_id":56253982245189,"sku":"9783032077233","price":29.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/8767ad4c-cead-4f44-953a-dcff450f1665.jpg?v=1781241066","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/psychology-s-quiet-conservatism-von-brian-m-hughes","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
