Claudio Naranjo's HEALING CIVILIZATION

Claudio Naranjo's Healing Civilization argues that societal problems stem from an imbalance in the "inner family" (father, mother, child) mirroring a patriarchal societal structure. The book explores the historical roots of this imbalance, tracing it back to the decline of matriarchal cultures and the rise of patriarchal dominance. Naranjo proposes a tri-focal education focused on intellectual, emotional, and instinctual development to restore this balance and foster individual and societal well-being. He draws upon various sources, including mythology, psychology, and historical analysis, to support his argument. The provided excerpts feature endorsements and further contextualize the book's core thesis and significance.
