Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: In this article, the author responds to Abraham Maslow’s 1969 article, “Toward a Humanistic Biology,” from their perspective as a millennial-humanistic practitioner and scholar. The article calls attention to Maslow’s perception of the I-Thou relationship and discusses its connection to his perceptions of technology. Maslow’s views on the “superior” human or self-actualizing person are examined from a critical millennial-humanistic lens, and its implications on culture are addressed. The author provides suggestions on how the field of humanistic psychology can advance from the topics explored.
