Community psychology is an applied branch of psychology that
strives to promote the health and wellbeing of people in various
contexts. This discipline is of particular relevance in South
Africa, where excellent infrastructure and meaningful pockets of
wealth coexist with extremely poor communities experiencing
specific social and psychological issues. Community psychology in
South Africa presents the depth and width of the field of Community
psychology in its quest to eradicate psychosocial problems and
empower people through community development. This book considers
the theoretical foundations of the field and how these theories can
be applied to understanding psychosocial problems within the
multicultural South African context. Psychosocial problems
discussed in the book include the following: Health promotion;
Mental health; HIV/AIDS; Substance abuse; Poverty; Crime and
violence; Violence towards women and children; Interracial
relationships. This second edition has been updated to include
recent developments, especially regarding cultural awareness.
Community psychology in South Africa is aimed at experienced
psychologists, professionals dealing with community development and
the wellbeing of individuals and communities, as well as students
of social sciences.
