I think they are too formal and the subject matter envisaged would muddy them. That's why I suggested close to politics. The subject matter is a softer science quality than psychology, rather like in politics but without the partisanship. Political discussion often ends up discussing matters that transcends it but not formal enough for a psychological/psychiatric discussion. Discussion of such matters in politics always ends up, naturally, seeking a political solution as opposed to other potential apolitical solutions.
