COURSE SCHEDULE

Course Outline

The Psychology has been developed in 2 major trends which could be anticipated with Descartes's dichotomy. One trend is the subjectivism and the other is objectivism. Now, this separation is being challenged by so called postmodernism, which has inaugurated to deny the traditional metaphysics. The psychology should be ready to get rid of the dichotomy, and to make a new paradigm in the future. The new one may be built with  help of the Asian paradigm such as the Kih approach.
