Lukianoff and Haidt tell us that safetyism undermines the freedom of inquiry and speech that are indispensable to universities.” —Jonathan Marks, Commentary “The remedies the book outlines should be considered on college campuses, among parents of current and future students, and by anyone longing for a more sane society.” —Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Something has been going wrong on many college campuses in the last few years. Speakers are shouted down. Students and professors say they are walking on eggshells and are afraid to speak honestly. Rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide are rising—on campus as well as nationally. How did this happen? First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt show how the new problems on campus have their origins in three terrible ideas that have become increasingly woven into American childhood and education: What doesn’t kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. These three Great Untruths contradict basic psychological principles about well-being and ancient wisdom from many cultures. Embracing these untruths—and the resulting culture of safetyism—interferes with young people’s social, emotional, and intellectual development. It makes it harder for them to become autonomous adults who are able to navigate the bumpy road of life. Lukianoff and Haidt investigate the many social trends that have intersected to promote the spread of these untruths. They explore changes in childhood such as the rise of fearful parenting, the decline of unsupervised, child-directed play, and the new world of social media that has engulfed teenagers in the last decade. They examine changes on campus, including the corporatization of universities and the emergence of new ideas about identity and justice. They situate the conflicts on campus within the context of America’s rapidly rising political polarization and dysfunction. This is a book for anyone who is confused by what is happening on college campuses today, or has children, or is concerned about the growing inability of Americans to live, work, and cooperate across party lines. Titel: The Coddling of the American Mind Genre: Historie & Samfund Sammendrag: Bogen analyserer, hvordan ‘safetyism’ – en kultur hvor følelsesmæssig sikkerhed sættes højere end fri debat – har fået fodfæste på amerikanske universiteter og i ungdomskultur. Lukianoff og Haidt identificerer tre ‘dårlige idéer’: at det der ikke slår dig ihjel, gør dig svagere; at man skal stole fuldt på sine følelser; og at verden er delt i gode og onde mennesker. Med udgangspunkt i psykologi, samfundsvidenskab og konkrete campus‑sager argumenterer de for, at overbeskyttelse, frygtpræget opdragelse og sociale medier har skabt en mere sårbar generation, der oftere oplever angst og depression og er mindre tolerant over for uenighed. Bogen henvender sig til forældre, undervisere, studerende og andre, der vil forstå samtidens kulturkonflikter om ytringsfrihed, identitetspolitik og unges mentale sundhed.
