Mental health is often seen as the solution to society's problems, ranging from pandemics to terrorism. However, psychology and psychiatry are not immune to politics, and neither are Muslims. This book delves into the intersection of the politics of the psy-disciplines and the politics of Muslims, revealing how psychological theories and practices serve the interests of the State and perpetuate inequality, particularly racism and Islamophobia. By examining the psy-disciplines from a marginalized perspective, this book demonstrates how they are essential in producing loyal, low-risk, and productive citizens, offering a contemporary discussion of three paradigms underlying the psy-disciplines: neoliberalism, security, and the politics of mental health.
