This book explores Latin America through a political psychology lens.
This book presents a broad spectrum of theoretical and methodological perspectives illustrating how political psychology has addressed critical social issues in Latin America and provides a selective summary of the work carried out by some of the leading Latin American researchers in political psychology. This volume will allow readers to identify the most relevant topics of this discipline in Latin America, including the specific structural conditions of inequality and intergroup conflict in the region, as well as the most relevant contributions from Latin America to the global field of political psychology, including strategies of resistance and resilience and reflections on the potential transforming power of citizens to effect change through political participation and collective action.
