Centre for Culture and the Mind

The centre explores how the human mind and common humanity have been imagined in different cultural, socio-political and disciplinary contexts, examining the assumptions and forces which shaped such definitions.

Key questions

Can the emotional worlds of diverse groups of people be translated? Are the core characteristics of the human mind universal across cultures, ethnic groups and 'civilisations'? Can the ‘psy’ disciplines be global?
