The ALICE MILLER PRIZE

The Alice Miller Prize is a yearly award that is given to researchers, writers or journalists who relate to Alice Miller in their work and thus keep the memory of her important thoughts regarding the roots of violence in childhood.

And it can be given to nonprofit organisations taking action for the protection of children from violence.

The amount of money that can be granted varys. The board members of the Alice Miller Memorial Foundation receive recommendations - and pursue their own research among scientific papers published on the internet in the course of one year.

But you can also make a suggestion for the Alice Miller Prize 2018 by commenting below this post (comments will be reviewed - they require a Google account).

Psychosociology / Psycho-Sociology

We consider Alice Miller also as a representant of research in the field Psychosociology, even though she is mainly considered to be a psychohistorian (because she examined e.g. the childhood of Hitler) and called herself a "childhood researcher".

The Alice Miller Foundation wants to re-activate the term Psycho-Sociology to encourage research on the current situation of children and its connection to war in specified countries or world regions to promote these topics also in the field of peace research and peacebuilding.
