Alfred Adler was born. A true legend within the discipline, Adler is rightly heralded as the first community psychologist. Decades ahead of its time and rooted in social welfare, social justice, equality and the importance of education; Adlerian psychology, also known as individual psychology still resonates as strongly as when Adler began to articulate his ideas in the early part of the 20th Century.
Feeling engaged and connected with one's community is a central tenet of Adlerian psychology. The psychological importance of 'Social Interest' or 'Gemeinschaftsgefühl' as Adler originally called it, is as important today as it has ever been.
