Depression has established environmental and neurological causes. Efforts to join the two typically ends at lifestyle or social factors, but what can be said beyond that? Sociopolitical power structures, zeitgeist, and culture all exert significant effects on our lives. This course seeks to join modern theories of depression from philosophical, polito-theoretical, and neuropsychiatric perspectives to form a holistic model of how depression exists in modernity.
