A discussion of the potentially curative influence of religion on mental health. The contributions relating to religion of Emile Durkheim, Elias Canetti, and Carl Gustav Jung are analyzed, focusing on their arguments about the curative effects of religion and of religious ceremonies on people's psychological crises. Also analyzed are the theories of Sigmund Freud and Erich FROMM as to how religion can create optimistic feelings in individuals with respect to their socially constructed needs of redemption, release from guilt, and unconscious negation of injustice.

An anthropological conception of alienation is taken as the basis for a detailed analysis of ideas on sociopathology and psychopathology of some well-known writers (Herbert Marcuse, Erich FROMM, Wilhelm Reich). From the phenomenological and anthropological standpoint, alienation is classified on three levels: intrapsychic, interpersonal, and phenomenological-descriptive. Discussed are the complex psychotherapeutic and functional problems involved in the schematization of these aspects. The relationship of psychopathological and sociopathological aspects is analyzed more extensively in family and institutional relations, the processes of production and education, and communication. The purpose of group psychotherapy is to achieve an understanding and experience of >We<, using the notions of freedom and responsibility as tools for overcoming feelings of alienation.
