PERSON, CHARACTER AND VALUES ACCORDING TO RUDOLF ALLERS IN THE PSYCHOLOGY OF CHARACTER
Keywords:
Rudolf Allers, psychology, psychiatry, person, personality, character, valuesAbstract
The Viennese psychiatrist Rudolf Allers has been virtually relegated to oblivion, despite being quite relevant in the past. He developed a founding program in psychiatry, that of psychopathology (specifically neurosis), and characterology in Catholic anthropology, specifically Thomist. The article briefly discusses Allers’s main ideas on the distinction between person and character, and the relationship between character and values. The objective is to update his potential relevance for a critique of contemporary psychology, independent of any metaphysical reference.
