Humanity at the Core of Transactional Analysis

Abstract

In today’s world of global challenges, the issue of humanistic values within professional communities is gaining particular significance. We are convinced that humanistic values and humanity have always been and continue to be an inseparable part of Transactional Analysis. Eric Berne, the founder of the method, emphasized that life scripts are shaped not only within the family system but also under the influence of broader social contexts — including wars, political events, and natural disasters. Ignoring these aspects would strip TAof its depth, relevance, and humanistic essence.
