[ Ссылка ] Jordan Peterson is a Canadian psychologist, professor, and public intellectual who gained prominence for his views on free speech, political correctness, and gender identity. Born on June 12, 1962, in Alberta, Canada, he rose to international recognition in the 2010s for his outspoken critiques of legislation that compelled the use of specific gender pronouns. Peterson argued that such laws infringed upon free speech rights.
He has held academic positions at various universities, including Harvard University and the University of Toronto, where he taught psychology. Peterson's expertise lies in areas such as personality psychology, religious beliefs, and the assessment of creativity and personality.
Peterson's book "Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief" (1999) explores the relationship between belief systems, mythology, and psychology. However, it was his second book, "12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos" (2018), that propelled him to global fame. This self-help book combines psychology, philosophy, and personal anecdotes to provide practical advice on navigating life's challenges.
His public lectures and interviews on topics ranging from psychology to politics have garnered both a devoted following and significant controversy. Supporters appreciate his defense of free speech and his emphasis on individual responsibility, while critics accuse him of promoting controversial views on gender and other social issues.
Jordan Peterson's impact on contemporary discourse has been substantial, as he has sparked debates about the boundaries of free expression, political correctness, and the role of academia in shaping public opinion. He remains a polarizing figure, celebrated by some for his intellectual rigor and criticized by others for his stances on sensitive topics.
