Abstract
"Return of the Shaman" by Manvir Singh explores the resurgence of shamanism in contemporary American culture and politics. The article delves into the diverse practices of shamans, from traditional healers in Indonesia to modern-day practitioners in finance and medicine. Singh defines a shaman as a specialist who engages with unseen realities through altered states to provide healing and divination services. The text also touches on the potential links between shamanism, conspiracy theories, and psychosis, highlighting the shaman's role as a negotiator with chaos in uncertain times.
