{"product_id":"9781529790184","title":"The Muslim, State and Mind : Psychology in Times of Islamophobia by Tarek Younis","description":"Mental health is positioned as the cure-all for society's discontents, from pandemics to terrorism. But psychology and psychiatry are not apolitical, and neither are Muslims. This book unpacks where the politics of the psy-disciplines and the politics of Muslims overlaps, demonstrating how psychological theories and practices serve State interests and perpetuate inequality-especially racism and Islamophobia. Viewing the psy-disciplines from the margins, this book illustrates how these necessarily serve the State in the production of loyal, low-risk and productive citizens, offering a modern discussion of three paradigms underlying the psy-disciplines: neoliberalism, security and the politics of mental health.     Tarek Younis is Senior Lecturer in Psychology at Middlesex University.?\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56312595251573,"sku":"9781529790184","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529790184.jpg?v=1762822863","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781529790184","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
