Supporting psychological approaches to enhancing Jewish identity and defeating antisemitism
关于我们
The Association of Jewish Psychologists is the scientific and professional home of Jewish psychologists and our allies whose primary focus is Jewish culture, ethnicity, and religion, including issues of antisemitism. The Association promotes the psychological understanding of Jewish history, culture, religion, and ethnicity, and its relationship to our field of Psychology and the larger society. The Association advocates for the funding of scientific work on the psychological health of Jewish communities and other marginalized communities. We promote research on the predictors and consequences of antisemitism and hatred directed at targeted groups. The Association promotes research on the efficacy of a broad range of educational interventions to combat antisemitism. The Association disseminates knowledge of the history of the Jewish people, its culture, varying cultural and religious subgroups related to forced migration to the Diaspora, and a shared identity as a people, rooted in a common identification with its Jewish homeland, now found in modern day Israel. The Association advocates for the inclusion of Jewish people in EDI frameworks as marginalized ethnic, religious, and multiracial people.

Erich Fromm (1900–1980) was a German-born psychoanalyst, social philosopher, and cultural critic known for his influential work on the interplay between psychology and society. Fromm's integration of psychoanalytic concepts with social and philosophical insights has had a lasting impact on psychology, sociology, and humanistic thought. His emphasis on love, freedom, and human potential continues to resonate in contemporary discussions of mental health and well-being. Some of His key contributions to Psychology: - Humanistic Psychology - The Sane Society - Love and Relationships The Art of Loving (1956) - Character Types Connection to Judaism: Erich Fromm's Jewish heritage significantly influenced his thinking and writings. He was a Holocaust Survivor who Fled the Nazi regime to the United States. Although he was critical of certain religious doctrines, he integrated elements of Jewish thought into his psychological theories. Drawing from Jewish concepts of free will, Fromm explored the idea that true freedom comes with personal responsibility. He believed that individuals must engage with their societal conditions to achieve genuine freedom. while Fromm was critical of some aspects of organized religion, his Jewish background informed his humanistic approach to psychology and his advocacy for love, freedom, and social responsibility. #AJPFormation #JewishPsychologists #FightAntisemitism #PsychologicalResearch #ClinicalApproaches #JewishIdentity #SocialJustice #HumanRights
