Aflevering Depression In Different Cultures | Lectures By Jan Derksen And Pius Mosima And Angela Roothaan

“The common cold of mental illnesses” it’s called, but also “disease number one.” Depression. Almost 20% of all Dutch people deal with it at some point in their lives. Why do people in the Netherlands and other Western countries suffer so much from feelings of gloom and dispiritedness? To what degree is depression a product of an individualized and medicalized culture? And how do people deal with depression differently on the African continent? Think further about this with psychologist Jan Derksen and philosophers Pius Mosima and Angela Roothaan.
