Neurosis and Human Growth: The Struggle Toward Self-Realization by Karen Horney (1885–1952)
Karen Horney stands among the most incisive psychoanalytic thinkers of the twentieth century. In Neurosis and Human Growth, she explores how inner conflicts and defenses shape human behavior. Horney argues that when individuals lack a sense of security, love, and recognition, they cope with the resulting anxiety by abandoning their authentic feelings. To manage this distress, they construct artificial strategies of protection—both within the psyche and in relationships with others.
This framework offers profound insight for psychologists, psychotherapists, and scholars across the humanities. By understanding how we invent these defensive structures, we gain a clearer path toward genuine self-realization.
