Yes, Charles B. Strozier wrote this book, but it was ultimately published under a different final title. [1, 2]
While Strozier—a noted historian and psychoanalyst—initially developed the project under the working title Radical Empathy: The Psychology of Peacemaking in Northern Ireland, it was published by Ethics Press under the title Making Peace in Northern Ireland: The Miracle of the Good Friday Agreement and the Creation of a Fair and Just Democracy. [1, 2, 3]
Core Concepts of the Book
- The Role of "Radical Empathy": Despite the title change, the concept of "radical empathy" remains the philosophical backbone of the book. Strozier argues that a psychological shift and deep, empathetic listening between conflicting parties were required to end the decades of violence known as the Troubles. [1]
- Focus on John Alderdice: The book heavily features John, Lord Alderdice—a psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, and key political leader—examining how his unique psychological background helped bridge the deep divides during the peace process. [1]
- Psychoanalytic Framework: Strozier applies clinical concepts (such as "the frame" and "transforming humiliation") to broad, macro-political international relations. [1]
(Note: If you are looking for a book specifically titled Radical Empathy, you might also be thinking of political scientist Terri Givens' book, Radical Empathy: Finding a Path to Bridging Racial Divides, which focuses on structural racism in the United States). [1, 2]
