Hope and Despair : Social Research: an International Quarterly of the Social Sciences

Hope and Despair are not just aspects of our psychic life that affect only our individual behaviors and sense of well being. They also have determining effects on the histories of nations and on political and economic activities which, on the face of it, seem patently non-psychological. The papers in this special issue of Social Research represent the depth that these two emotions have on our social lives, examining hope and despair from historical, philosophical, political, and psychological perspectives.Mack, Arien is the author of 'Hope and Despair : Social Research: an International Quarterly of the Social Sciences', published 1999 under ISBN 9781933481272 and ISBN 1933481277.
