Superego Dilemmas

Pages 175-182 | Published online: 01 Jul 2008
 

Abstract

In this paper, the author suggests that there can be no adequate considerations of the functions of the superego without taking into account cultural attitudes toward authority. The current deconstructionist trends in academia seem to reflect a mistrust of authority that cannot but find its way into discussions (or avoidance of discussions) on the nature and function of the superego.
