Social psychology can focus attention on the individual's relationship to the larger social system, but mainstream psychology too often examines relatively trivial issues or -- perhaps just as troubling -- broad issues in a trivial, unchallenging way. The result reinforces the status quo. Many of the books and articles listed here were written by social psychologists. Some are standards, including a few textbooks that raise interesting issues. Others cover topics that mainstream social psychologists might not consider "social psychological," but students should find many of them thought provoking. History, economics, anthropology, political theory, and other fields examine topics that shape our assumptions about how human beings behave. This is not a comprehensive list of either
mainstream or critical social psychology readings. It's not an
even-handed list "showing both sides." It is instead very
idiosyncratic, reflecting some of my past and current interests,
including critical psychology, psychology and law, corporate power,
anarchism, alternative community and sexuality-relationship
cultures, and critical approaches to "self-help." I haven't read all these books. I don't agree with them all. Their authors don't all agree with one another. Life's not that simple. Many listed issues are addressed elsewhere:
