The reconstruction of psychology

T. R. Payne

pp. 78-116

Abstract

The reconstruction of psychology and its establishment on a firm Marxist-Leninist foundation has long been the ideal of Soviet psychologists. As early as 1923, K. N. Kornilov called for the construction of a new "Marxist" psychology to replace the old "bourgeois idealist schools"1, and the same call has been reiterated by almost every Soviet psychologist since.
