Abstract
- This paper contains my responses to the papers included in the present EJPC issue on the Greek economic crisis. My critical investigation of these papers revealed the presence of either a well-disguised individualism or a naive collectivism in the authors' attempts to examine the function of psychotherapy in the midst of the current economic crisis. I suggest that one should keep alive the tension between the 'ideological' and 'radical' functions of psychotherapy by adopting a dialectical analysis which could combine both psychological and sociological explanations of the current crisis without relinquishing either or reducing one to the other [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
