Overview

We will continue exploring the impact of cultural and socio-political norms and question assumptions in our ethical thinking. Taking the example from Sebek’s paper we could ask what happens when we do not share the same ethical values as our patient or supervisee  from a different culture? We will consider the impact of personal shadow and cultural complexes on our ethical values. Please all read the essential reading.
