This edited volume in the Community Psychology Book Series
emphasizes applications of community psychology for disrupting
dominant and hegemonic power relations. The book explores domains
of work that are located within critical community psychology, as
well as work that is conventionally not self-defined as community
psychology but which draws on and contributes to the foundations
and enactments of critical and liberatory community psychology.
Specifically, the book advances conceptions and praxes for
community psychology grounded within a decolonial framework. The
volume heeds the call for a generation of approaches to community
psychology that link local struggles to broader questions of power,
identity, and knowledge production, bringing together examples of
praxes from different contexts as a political project of
highlighting indigenous struggles toward self-determination.
Collectively, the chapters in this book embody a decolonial agenda
for community psychology that foregrounds social justice; the lives
and knowledges of the marginalized and oppressed; epistemic
disobedience and transdisciplinarity; and decolonial aesthetics.
The book is divided into two parts - Part I: Conceptions of
Engagement for Community Psychology delves into the conceptual
framework for a decolonial community psychology, and Part II: Modes
of Enactments and Praxes for Community Psychology builds on these
theoretical advancements through examples of praxis in different
contexts. The audience for the book includes scholars, researchers,
practitioners, activists, and students located within community
psychology specifically, as well as disciplines within the health
and social sciences, and arts and humanities more broadly.
