Positive Disintegration

Más información sobre el libro

The theory of positive disintegration, as proposed by Kazimierz Dabrowski, explores the complex process of personality development through disharmony and adaptation challenges. He identifies disintegration as a necessary phase marked by symptoms like anxiety and psychoneurosis, which signal a breakdown of the existing psychic structure. This turmoil is essential for growth, leading to a higher level of integration and psychic health. Dabrowski emphasizes that true evolution of personality arises from dissatisfaction and fragmentation, ultimately fostering a developmental instinct toward higher functioning.
