Preface No perspicuous definition of critical psychology currently exists. For some psychologists, critical psychology is about analyzing psychology in the context of power, including the power that psychology, as a discipline and as a practice, exerts in the process of subjectification. For others, critical psychology is about acknowledging and analyzing the embeddedness of human mental life or subjectivity, and their conceptualizations, in larger structures such as society, history, or culture. Still others have argued that critical psychology is principally a practice or that psychologists should give primacy to praxis over theory, whereby the term is understood in the context of emancipation, liberation, or resistance. Some have argued that critical psychology is about deconstructing mainstream psychology while providing new and better alternative concepts, theories, and practices. Again, others have argued that critical psychology, as a human science and profession, should be guided specifically by the values of social justice, equality, solidarity, and liberty. Some have even argued that critical psychology is about decolonizing traditional psychology and challenging the status quo. I do not even attempt to provide a conclusive definition of critical psychol- ogy, but would rather suggest that an encyclopedia of critical psychology needs to cast a net as wide as possible around what critically psychology may entail. Indeed, the entries in this encyclopedia are a testimony to the variety of understandings of what critical could mean. Represented here are approaches that include phenomenology and hermeneutics, Marxism, feminism, social constructionism, anti-psychiatry, anarchism, critical theory, chaos theory, critical race and disability theory, queer theory, radical community psychol- ogy, psychoanalysis, poststructuralism, postcolonial theory, and other non-mainstream approaches. As it is often the case with approaches whose identities are marginal and hybrid, I am certain that some critical psychologists would have liked to exclude or re-write other critical psychologists’ entries, or to have seen additional entries. Certainly, such exclusionary and inclusionary intentions emerge from this heterogeneous area that we call critical psychology. To the best of my knowledge, the Encyclopedia of Critical Psychology is the first English-language encyclopedia that focuses on concepts, theories, and practices that reflect various critical traditions while providing analytical evaluations of traditional as well as critical ideas. The structure of the encyclopedia reflects this notion when traditional and critical debates on a specific subject matter or topic are compared and contrasted. Longer entries vii viii Preface in the work include the history as well as the meaning of a psychological term in an international and practical context. Reflection on the meaning or relevance of a term in a global context forces the author, and the reader, to move beyond their own theoretical-geographical borders. I believe that this requirement, to reach beyond one’s own frameworks, was a difficult one to fulfil for some authors. Equally difficult was it for theory-oriented critical psychologists to reflect on the meaning of their analyses for praxis, even in its widest meaning. This ground-breaking encyclopedia, which has attempted to include a range of critical traditions, geographical regions, and as many relevant terms as possible, could however be improved in multiple ways. For instance, language remains an important barrier for a wide variety of international contributions, and English-speaking authors were thus privileged. Doing perfect justice to all the problems that we encountered when committing to the internationalization of (critical) psychology, as well as to the varieties of critical psychology and to the vast array of terms that demand critical assessment, would have required more time and space. I hope we will be able to remedy such lacunae in future editions, but I believe that the present edition will be helpful to psychologists as well as human and social scientists more broadly. Indeed, the encyclopedia provides a systematic voice for critical psychologists from around the world when looking comprehensively at psychological topics from critical points of view. Finally, I should mention that it was challenging to commit authors to follow a pre-arranged structure, which was intended to provide coherence and improve readability for students and academics alike. The very nature of critical psychology as a challenge to the status quo was turned against the idea of producing a structured discussion of psychological terms. Such an intuitive reaction, sometimes justified through reason, required coaching and appeals to solidarity to overcome. Still, some entries did not follow the structure completely. I do not necessarily consider this a weakness but a reality that reflects the complexity and variety of critical thinking and critical personalities in psychology.

  • Critical Psychology in the Philippines
    CRITICAL PSYCHOLOGY IN THE PHILIPPINES There are many pathological features of Philippine culture that are either caused or exacerbated by the debilitating effects of neocolonial dynamics. These effects include endemic poverty, endemic corruption, diasporic deployment of Filipino labor, trafficking of women and children, exploitation and destruction of indigenous cultures, the paradoxical increase in nationalism coexisting with the desire to leave the Philippines, the consumption of cosmetic bleaching, feelings of failure and learned helplessness, lack of self-fulfillment, feelings of inferiority not only among the urban, rural, and mountain poor, but also within Christian and Moslem cultures as well, Postcolonial theory analyzes the nature of these dynamics and explores they ways in which they can be changed. For example, Bhabha (2004), an Indian with an Oxford education, suggests that multicultural experience, especially diasporic, can generate insight into such neocolonial oppression and thus create a coherence to the seeds of discontent and destabilization that enable cultural change. The Katipunan, which may have launched the first successful revolution based on Marxist theory, was inspired in large measure from Rizal’s exposure to European universities. “. it is from those who have suffered the sentence of history— subjugation, domination, diaspora, displacement—that we learn our most enduring lessons for living and thinking.” (Bhabha, 2004, p. 246.) Fannon, a Martinique expatriate educated in France, as a psychiatrist witnessed psychological trauma in French Algiers. After WWII he participated in the Algerian revolution which won independence in 1962. He applied concepts from psychoanalytic theory to the understanding of colonial culture. He combined psychology and politics, effectively viewing them an integrated system.

  • Critical and Collective Psychologies
    Critical and Collective Psychologies w/ Leah McKown A Tale of Two Psychologies 2.0 Critical Psychology: a school of thought which fundamentally rejects the basic tenets of “mainstream psychology” Collective Psychology: a school of thought which emphasizes the psychological faculties of units beyond the individual Critical Psychology “Mainstream Psychology”: schools of thought which are most commonly taught in university settings and practiced in clinical settings (Fox, 2009, p.3); think cognitive-behavioral and biological models Why does critical psychology reject “mainstream psychology”? Critical Psychology ANSWER: 1 by focusing on the individual rather than the group or larger society, mainstream psychology overemphasizes individualistic values, hinders the attainment of mutuality and community, and strengthens unjust institutions; 2 mainstream psychology’s underlying assumptions and institutional allegiances disproportionately hurt members of powerless and marginalized groups by facilitating inequality and oppression; and 3 these unacceptable outcomes occur regardless of psychologists’ individual or collective intentions to the contrary (Fox, 2009, p. 5) Critical Psychology ● Heavily influenced by the Frankfurt School and Critical Theory, a German sociological program based on Marxist visions of justice ● Originated in 1970s Germany with Klaus Holzkamp ● Associated with various social movements and platforms Erich Fromm & The Sane Society ● Born in Frankfurt, Germany in 1900 ● Fled Germany after the Nazis rose to power ● Lived in Switzerland,

  • Historical Thinking As a Tool for Theoretical Psychology on Objectivity Thomas Teo
    Part II Historical Approaches 9 Historical Thinking as a Tool for Theoretical Psychology On Objectivity Thomas Teo In this chapter, I discuss the relevance of historical thinking for theoretical and philosophical psychology. In particular, I am interested in how historical thought styles (Fleck 1979) can be used as tools for theoretical psychology. In the follow­ ing reconstructions, five approaches of historical thinking that contribute to an understanding of psychological problems are discussed: history of science, history of the present, history as reconstruction, history of the politics of difference, and historical psychology. I use the concept of objectivity as an example to demonstrate the relevance of these approaches to theoretical psychology. It should be mentioned that the relationship between the history of psychology, which may incorporate some of the above‐mentioned thought styles, and the theory of psychology, is a complicated one (Teo 2013). The term historical thinking encompasses more approaches than the subdiscipline of the history of psychology. I suggest that temporality and professional histories are not sufficient to theoretical thinking in psychology and that professional history, as important as it is, is only one element in the discussion of temporality. Rather, I recommend that theoretical psychologists should include various historical thought styles in their endeavors as they were developed by historians as well as philosophers, social scientists, and psychologists, many of whom have engaged in critical approaches to the problem. History of Science Histories of science are sometimes presented by trained historians, but also by scientists‐turned‐historians. In this thought style, history has primacy but there are often theoretical implications that have major consequences for various The Wiley Handbook of Theoretical and Philosophical Psychology: Methods, Approaches, and New Directions for Social Sciences, First Edition.

  • The Challenge of Being a Critical Psychologist in Times of Crisis: an Example from Austria1
    The challenge of being a critical psychologist in times of crisis: An example from Austria1 Reinhilde Trinks Austrian Gesellschaft kritischer Psychologen Andrea Birbaumer University of Technology, Vienna Anna Keclik University of Vienna Abstract The article bases on the resuming papers of two workshop conferences held by GkPP (Gesellschaft kritischer Psychologen und Psychologinnen = Austrian Society of Critical Psychologists - in August 2009 and August 2010), which aimed to analyze the role and the targets of critical psychology as well as critical psychologist practitioners towards current challenges in social and health politics and practice due to globalized economic, cultural and social crises. After an overview of recent discussions in Austria's current Health and Social Politics as well as Educational Politics the paper focuses on the role of psychology/psychologists in different settings (with a focus on Health and Social System, including professional regulations if existing) and their position in relation to other health and social professionals. The following discussions include: - the (re)development and 're-sharpening' of basic positions and attitudes of CP towards global crisis and their contributions to a critical discussion of current approaches in 'Mainstream Psychology/ies' - well-known and new contradictions CP has to face - feminist vs. gender debates - what is needed in science and practical work to stay 'critical' - the effects of crisis on the self-esteem as critical psychologists, concerning the systematically increasing number of (young, well-trained and female) colleagues in precarious jobs - which consequences have to be drawn for a critical professionals' association concerning its concepts for profession politics and close with an outlook to the estimated developments within the next years and suggestions for analytical and practical work to be done in critical psychology.

In a first step, the development of critical psychologies is located in current discussions on the production of knowledge, and three different typical approaches and major steps toward situated critique as a practice of mutual recognition are delineated. This shift, it is argued, has led to a historically new relevance of critique, and two basic analytical elements of critical research are introduced: Everyday conflictuality as the initiating moment of critique as well as the importance of theory for critical inquiry. On this basis a variety of analytic strategies and concepts are presented which inform Critical Psychology from the Standpoint of the Subject and suggest a constituent move from partial perspectives toward situated generalization.

  • Agnotology in the Dialectics of the History and Philosophy of Psychology
    23610.1177/0959354313504838Theory & PsychologyTeo TAP 53 04838 Comment Theory & Psychology 23(6) 840–851 Agnotology in the dialectics © The Author(s) 2013 Reprints and permissions: of the history and philosophy sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/0959354313504838 of psychology tap.sagepub.com Thomas Teo York University Abstract It is suggested that Robinson’s (2013) arguments are based on a less than clear articulation of the relationship between the history and philosophy of psychology. After tackling the relationship between these two subdisciplines and conceptualizing them in a dialectic relationship from a programmatic point of view, consequences for writing and reading works in the history and philosophy of psychology are examined. Lessons learned from the reflections suggest that there are inherent conflicts between the two subdisciplines, that the history of psychology needs to reflect on its implicit assumptions as well as on relevance, and that the substance of philosophical psychology can be improved when an historical perspective is taken. Consequences for a critical history and philosophy of psychology are discussed. Keywords history, philosophy, pilosophy of science, theory Agnotology, the study of ignorance-making (Proctor & Schiebinger, 2008), could be a starting point for a response to Robinson’s (2013) concerns about ignorance. However, Robinson’s arguments are reasonable and I actually do not disagree with many of his remarks. Yet, I suggest that an analysis of the relationship between the history and phi- losophy of psychology clarifies some misunderstandings or misgivings. In approaching my own argument, I could choose an historical approach that reconstructs the trajectory of the history of psychology and the philosophy of psychology as differing thought styles and thought collectives (Fleck, 1935/1979); or I could tackle the problem philosophi- cally/systematically (theoretically) neglecting history.

It is not surprising that in the areas of the history and theory of psychology one finds as many different positions, interests, and perspectives as there exist in other fields of psychology. However, most historians of psychology are united by attributing significance to the past as a source for understanding the form and content of contemporary psychology. And most theoreticians, or rather metatheoreticians, are united by the conviction that metatheory and theory play guiding roles in research. But what is the relationship between theoretical and historical psychology? This question is answered differently by insiders. Some believe that one can study metatheory without including history, whereas others argue that metatheory without historical knowledge is shortsighted. History, on the other hand, does not necessarily require metatheory, but if historians of psychology wish to study more than chronological data, then they must certainly learn from and about metatheory. In a Kantian mode one might argue that metatheory without history is blind, and history without metatheory is vain.

Sagrada: The Mystery of Creation celebrates Gaudi’s vision and the continuing work of countless laborers, artisans, designers and architects as they strive to complete the colossal project while delving into the mysterious process of artistic creation. La Sagrada Familia was commissioned by the Order of St Joseph in 1882. After conflicts arose between the Order and the original architect, 31 year old Antoni Gaudí was hired to complete the design. A devout Catholic and architectural prodigy, Gaudí envisioned a place of worship that combined elements of classic French Gothic style and the curvilinear, organic aspects of the budding Art Nouveau school.
