This volume presents the first organized study of Jung's ethics. Drawing on direct quotes from all of his collected works interviews and seminars psychoanalyst and religious scholar Dan Merkur provides a compendium of Jungâs thoughts on various topics and themes that comprise his theoretical corpusâfrom the personal unconscious repression dreams good and evil and the shadow to collective phenomena such as the archetypes synchronicity the psychoid the paranormal God and the Self as well as his contributions to clinical method and technique including active imagination inner dialogue and the process of individuation and consciousness expansion. The interconnecting thread in Merkur's approach to the subject matter is to read Jungâs work through an ethical lens. What comes to light is how Merkur systematically portrays Jung as a moralist but also as a complex thinker who situates the human being as an instinctual animal struggling with internal conflict and naturalized sin. Merkur exposes the tension and development in Jungâs thinking by exploring his innovative clinical-technical methods and experimentation such as through active imagination inner dialogue and expressive therapies hence underscoring unconscious creativity in dreaming symbol formation engaging the paranormal and artistic productions leading to expansions of consciousness which becomes a necessary part of individuation or the working through process in pursuit of self-actualization and wholeness. In the end we are offered a unique presentation of Jungâs core theoretical and clinical ideas centering on an ethical fulcrum whereby his moral psychology leads to a cure of souls. Jungâs Ethics will be of interest to academics scholars researchers and practitioners in the fields of Jungian studies and analytical psychology ethics moral psychology philosophy religious studies and mental health professionals focusing on the integration of humanities and psychoanalysis. .
