Jordan Peterson is a Canadian clinical psychologist, professor, and author known for his work on psychology, philosophy, and cultural critique. Born on June 12, 1962, in Alberta, Canada, Peterson earned his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from McGill University and later served as a professor at Harvard University and the University of Toronto. Peterson gained widespread recognition for his opposition to Canada's Bill C-16 in 2016, which he argued compelled speech by mandating the use of preferred pronouns for gender identities. This sparked international debate on free speech and political correctness. His views have since made him a polarizing figure, with supporters praising his defense of individual liberty and critics accusing him of fostering divisiveness. Peterson's bestselling book, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos (2018), blends psychology, philosophy, and self-help principles, encouraging readers to embrace responsibility and order in their lives. He followed this with Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life (2021). His teachings often draw on biblical stories, mythology, and Carl Jung’s theories, emphasizing the importance of meaning, structure, and personal accountability. Peterson is also a prominent speaker and online personality, with lectures and interviews addressing topics such as human nature, societal structures, and ideological extremism. While his intellectual contributions have earned him a dedicated following, his critiques of modern cultural movements have sparked ongoing debate. Despite health struggles in recent years, Peterson continues to be a significant voice in discussions on personal growth, freedom, and Western cultural values.
