The Supramoral Superego

This chapter analyzes the superego as a supramoral construct in psychological theory, particularly through Freud's lens. It explores the implications of the critical inner voice in personal well-being, therapy, and societal judgments, suggesting potential ways to mitigate its oppressive nature. The discussion connects historical and philosophical perspectives to illustrate how the superego's demanding nature affects individuals and communities, especially in the context of modern challenges.
