one-sided[edit]

It is a pity - and rather disappointing that an earlier contributor has just focussed on Krueger's relationship with the Nazi Party.

There is a lot more to mention here in terms of his philosophical and psychological contributions and achievements.

On the works of Felix Krueger see Brigitteh E. Niestroij: "This contribution aims to present those aspects of the genetic, holistic or structural psychology of Felix Kruegerwhich deals explicitly with the significance of history and culture for psychology. Of greatest relevance to this subject is Krueger's programmatical text “Uber Entwicklungspsychologie—ihre sachliche und geschichtliche Notwendigkeit” (1915), the first in the series “Arbeiten zur Entwicklungspsychologie”, which he edited. The following discussion concentrates on this book, which is representative neither of Krueger's overall psychology nor of his later work or of German Psychology in general. This book originated within the context of the psycho-historical cultural research carried out by Karl Lamprecht (1856-1915) and of Wilhelm Wundt's academically established ethno-psychology (Kulturpsychologie). Their concern was to combine history, sociology and psychology. What seems so familiar to us today from the "annates school" in France, the historical researching of mentalities, may legitimately be seen within the context of work done at the University of Leipzig at the turn of the century. Krueger's article bears witness to the many controversies at the time which have remained the object of academic science up to the present day."

"Psychology, which by its very name seems called as no other science to romp in the fullness of life, has nowadays become as sobre and lean as an ascetic ... Kierkegaard"
