Introduction: A new bridge between mind and society -- Part I: The choice between fascism and democracy in everyday life in the individual mind, the family, and society : 1. What is the original "mind software" we humans receive at the "factory"? -- 2. The choice between fascist mind and democratic mind: what chance do we have of changing our "fascist minds" to "democratic minds"? -- 3. The fascist believer: totality, overcertainty, and suppression of information -- 4. The fascist slave: obedience, conformity, and intolerance of dissent -- 5. The fascist fist: superiority, excessive power, and violence against self and others -- 6. The fascist denier: "I never did any harm": denials of doing harm to oneself or to others -- Part II. Overcoming and growing beyond the seductions of fascism in mind and society : 7. Democratic mind as the healthy alternative to fascist mind: the joy of life process and opportunity -- 8. Psychotherapy as antifascism and training for democracy -- 9. Discovering applications of democratic mind in everyday life -- 10. A unified theory of democratic mind in the self, family, and society: a vision of more decent human beings who do less harm to themselves and others -- Conclusion: The care and maintenance of the bridge between mind and society -- Epilogue: My background both as a psychotherapist and as a peace researcher studying genocide.
