Book excerpt: This book focuses on the theoretical concepts of community psychology and its applications in day-to-day life. It discusses the challenges that adversely affect the welfare and well-being of common people and suggests community-centric, evidence-based measures to address them.

Key features of this book include: • Dedicated intervention-based chapters on mental health, physical health, differently abled people, the elderly, vulnerable children, HIV/AIDS patients, and people affected by development projects and disasters. • Focus on challenges faced by students and school-based family counselling. • Case studies and conceptual models for better understanding and application of the subject. The volume will be a valuable resource to students, researchers, and teachers of Psychology, Social Work, Sociology, Public Health, and Social Economics.

Book excerpt: This book examines how and where psychology can engage itself in the framing of social policies for national as well as human development in India. Although the role that psychological knowledge can play in informing social policy decisions has been discussed for a long time, psychologists by and large have had little role in framing policy decisions related to such important domains as education, health, social justice and social inclusion. Policy makers, not only in India, but more or less everywhere have focused on interventions at the macro level, which has led them to ignore the root causes of the problems lying at the micro level. However, with the more humanistic approaches now being followed by economists and other social scientists, the person in society is slowly taking centrestage. Micro-level variables like happiness, the wellbeing of individuals and the social relationships within which people define themselves are becoming important. Therefore, this book discusses important psychological issues related to human development; particularly, health and education, social justice, social integration, environment and work organizations, besides focusing on some general issues relating to the logic of making social policies. It is a first-ever attempt in India to inform policy makers about how micro-variables can be a crucial factor to consider while framing social policies.

Book excerpt: Global Applications of Indian Psychology: Therapeutic and Strategic Models addresses the critical problem of the limited perspective in traditional Western psychology, which fails to encompass crucial aspects of human experience and well-being in our complex modern world. Edited by Anuradha Sathiyaseelan and Sathiyaseelan Balasundaram from Christ University, India, this comprehensive guide offers an interdisciplinary exploration of Indian psychology as a solution to this challenge. Delving into the historical and philosophical foundations of Indian psychology, the book provides readers with a profound understanding of its principles and theories. It highlights the wide-ranging applications of Indian psychology across disciplines such as management, health, and clinical practices, emphasizing the significance of ancient Indian texts, ayurveda, yoga, and mindfulness meditation. By facilitating cross-cultural dialogue and collaboration, this book bridges the gap between Indian and Western psychology, equipping researchers, and practitioners with insights from both traditions. This comprehensive approach fosters a more comprehensive understanding of human psychology and empowers individuals to develop effective strategies for promoting well-being and flourishing on a global scale. With its unique perspective and practical insights, Global Applications of Indian Psychology: Therapeutic and Strategic Models fills a crucial gap in the field, catering to teaching professionals, students, healthcare experts, policymakers, researchers, and scholars in their pursuit of a deeper understanding of human psychology and its application in improving lives worldwide.

This book was released on 2021-09-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the ways in which decolonial theory has gained traction and influenced knowledge production, praxis and epistemic justice in various contemporary iterations of community psychology across the globe. With a notable Southern focus (although not exclusively so), the volume critically interrogates the biases in Western modernist thought in relation to community psychology, and to illuminate and consolidate current epistemic alternatives that contribute to the possibilities of emancipatory futures within community psychology. To this end, the volume includes contributions from community psychology theory and praxis across the globe that speak to standpoint approaches (e.g. critical race studies, queer theory, indigenous epistemologies) in which the experiences of the majority of the global population are more accurately reflected, address key social issues such as the on-going racialization of the globe, gender, class, poverty, xenophobia, sexuality, violence, diasporas, migrancy, environmental degradation, and transnationalism/globalisation, and embrace forms of knowledge production that involve the co-construction of new knowledges across the traditional binary of knowledge producers and consumers. This book is an engaging resource for scholars, researchers, practitioners, activists and advanced postgraduate students who are currently working within community psychology and cognate sub-disciplines within psychology more broadly. A secondary readership is those working in development studies, political science, community development and broader cognate disciplines within the social sciences, arts, and humanities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook offers a unique critical and cross-disciplinary approach to the study of Community Psychology, showing how it can address the systemic challenges arising from multiple crises facing people across the world. Addressing some of the most pressing issues of our times, the text shows how Community Psychology can contribute to principled social change, giving voice, enabling civic participation and supporting the realignment of social and economic power within planetary boundaries. Featuring a collaboration of contributions from world-leading academics, early career researchers and community leaders, each chapter gives theory and context with practical examples of working with those living in precarious situations, on matters that concern them most, and highlights positive ways to contribute to progressive change. The editors examine economic, ecological, demographic, gender, violence, energy, social and cultural, and political crises in relation to psychological theories, as well as public policy and lived experiences, presenting an approach situated at the intersection of public policy and lived experiences. Viewed through four different perspectives or lenses: a critical lens; a praxis lens; an ecological lens and a reflective lens, this compendium of critical explorations into Community Psychology shows how it can contribute to a fairer, more just, resilient and sustainable world. Also examining the lessons learnt from the COVID-19 pandemic about the pervading nature of social inequality, but also the potential of solidarity movements ranging from local to international levels, this is ideal reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students and scholars in Community Psychology and related areas, including social psychology, clinical psychology and applied psychology.
