This volume celebrates the visions of a more equitable global
psychology as inspired by the late Professor K. S. Yang, one of the
founders of the indigenous psychology movement. This unprecedented
international debate among leaders in the field is essential for
anyone who wishes to understand the movement from within-the
thinking and the vision of those who are the driving forces behind
the movement. This book should appeal to scholars and students of
psychology, sociology, anthropology, ethnology, philosophy of
science, and postcolonial studies.
This volume introduces Asian indigenous psychologies with an
emphasis on major theoretical and practical issues. The
contributions demonstrate the potential for the indigenous
psychologies of Asia to offer an alternative model of the
internationalization of psychology-an internationalization not
dominated by Western psychology. As a whole, this volume explores
knowledge production outside of Western psychology; asks important
questions about the discipline, profession, and practice of Asian
indigenous psychology; makes critical appraises of cultural and
psychological assumptions; sheds light on the dialectics of the
universal and the particular in indigenous psychology; and explores
the possibilities for a more equitable global psychology.
