Trust Your Mind: Embracing Nuance in a World of Self-Silencing

內容簡介

內容簡介 一本對「自我噤聲」文化與群體思維毒性影響的迫切檢視，出自《異類心智》（Divergent Mind）作者、神經多樣性計畫（The Neurodiversity Project）創辦人珍娜拉．奈倫柏格（Jenara Nerenberg）之手。奈倫柏格賦予讀者理解心智並在日益極化的世界中前行的工具，從校園與職場，到媒體與更廣泛的社會皆涵蓋其中。透過網際網路橫跨地理與文化連結起來的世界，既是廣闊無垠的場域，也是一個日益縮小的回音室。溝通——特別是關於言論自由的討論——變得越來越具分裂性；一個人的發言權可能與另一個人防止傷害的訴求發生衝突。我們對不同意見的包容度也正在縮減。一句「錯誤」的評論或言論，不論看似多麼無害，都可能導致被驅逐；而相互矛盾的觀點則可能引發歇斯底里與反彈——也就是所謂的「取消文化」。這種極端對立影響著我們每一個人——在朋友與家人之間、職場與社群中——並威脅著社會的結構。在這本恰逢其時的著作中，珍娜拉．奈倫柏格分析了這種「自我噤聲」現象，提出有力的質疑：為何有害的群體思維竟成為可被接受的現象？她運用自己在新聞學、心理學與公共衛生領域的專業背景，深入探究在自我審查文化加劇下日益惡化的緊迫問題，包括孤獨、隔離與極化。 但仍有希望存在。奈倫柏格提供辨識並逃離群體思維的洞見，教我們如何將恐懼轉化為同理心，創造出一種真誠溝通的空間，這種溝通不會造成傷害，反而能減輕傷害。An urgent examination of self-silencing culture and the toxic impact of groupthink, by the author of Divergent Mind and founder of The Neurodiversity Project. Nerenberg empowers readers with tools to understand the mind and navigate an increasingly polarized world, from campuses and workplaces, to the media and beyond.Connected across geography and culture via the internet, the world is both a vast, limitless landscape and an ever-shrinking echo chamber. Communication, especially discourse over free speech, is becoming increasingly divisive; one person’s right to speak comes into conflict with another seeking to prevent harm. Our tolerance for differing opinions is also narrowing. A “wrong” remark or comment, no matter how seemingly innocent, can result in banishment, and contradictory ideas spark hysteria and backlash—what is referred to as “cancel culture.” This polarization affects everyone of us—among friends and families, workplaces and communities—and threatens the fabric of society.In this timely book, Jenara Nerenberg analyzes this phenomenon of “self-silencing,” asking potent questions about how harmful groupthink has become accepted. Applying her expertise in journalism, psychology, and public health, she digs deep into urgent problems that are worsening under a culture of self-censorship, including loneliness, isolation, and polarization.But there is hope. Nerenberg offers insights for how to identify and escape groupthink and transform fear into empathy, allowing space for authentic communication that reduces—rather than causes—harm to others.

In this highly accessible book, Jenara Nerenberg explains how we got into cul de sacs of dogmatism, and how we can get out of them.” — Eboo Patel, founder and president of Interfaith America and author of We Need To Build: Field Notes for Diverse Democracy“Jenara Nerenberg's Trust Your Mind creatively weaves together diverse developments over recent decades to illuminate the causes and impacts of the reduced free speech and increased groupthink that now plague public intellectual life. Her book should inspire renewed appreciation of and engagement in the critical thinking and open discourse that are so essential for the flourishing of individuals and society alike.” — Nadine Strossen, former president of the ACLU"Trust Your Mind is a bold call to think deeper and speak truer. Jenara Nerenberg shows how self-censorship holds us back from authentic connection and how to combat our habit of self-enforced silence for better conversations, a stronger society, and more personal resilience.” — Kurt Gray, author of OUTRAGED and director of the Deepest Beliefs Lab at UNC Chapel Hill"Trust Your Mind is a perceptive exploration of the forces driving self-silencing, loneliness, and social isolation in a polarized world. Jenara Nerenberg provides a thoughtful guide to reclaiming individuality, embracing nuance, and building authentic connections. A must-read for anyone seeking to navigate modern discourse with clarity and humanity." — Joel Salinas, MD, co-author of Conflict Resilience: Negotiating Disagreement Without Giving Up or Giving In“As an educator, philosopher, and advocate for liberal learning, I deeply appreciate Nerenberg’s rich exploration of the harms of self-censorship and groupthink. She makes a compelling case for thinking for ourselves by seeking out honest, open, courageous, and humble conversations with each other. This book is a welcome intervention in a polarized age.” — Jennifer Frey, Dean of the Honors College at The University of Tulsa and Professor of Philosophy in the Department of Philosophy & Religion“Trust Your Mind is a timely exploration of the downsides of self-censorship and groupthink in a polarized world. Using sharp analysis and research, Jenara Nerenberg guides us all toward opening our minds, engaging in real communication, embracing nuance, and viewing people as the complex, multifaceted individuals that they are--not the identities or ideas we think they're supposed to represent.” — Andrew Boryga, author of VICTIM
