Philosophy
Giobbi draws on the Frankfurt School, Critical Theory, and Psychoanalytic traditions of cultural criticism. Centering around the work of Erich Fromm and Martin Heidegger, Giobbi has called for a "postcognitive psychology" one in which a transdisciplinary approach replaces the current positivist domination of experimental psychology.[8]
Postcognitive Psychology
In his first book "A Postcognitive Negation: The Sadomasochistic Dialectic of American Psychology"[9] [10] (Atropos Presshttp://www.atropospress.com/http://www.atropospress.com/) Giobbi outlines the history of the "media event of experimental psychology" and the future course the field must take. In a review Victor VItanza wrote:
- "From an upstart position to a restart opportunity, Giobbi argues for and provides a well-documented background check on the modern paradigm of cognitive psychology--with all of its scientistic and positivistic presumptions. Systematically, yet paralogically, Giobbi turns his readers toward seeing what still remains concealed and hidden in modernist thinking: namely, the "sadomasochistic event" of mind-body split, master-slave relations, and subject-object dualisms. Giobbi prescribes a post-cognitive psychology of unconcealedness by way of a Heideggerian philosophy of Dasein."[11]
