Division 35 Society for the Psychology of Women Book Series, American Psychological Association - Available July 23, 2019

This is the first book to present a comprehensive introduction to transnational psychology. Transnational psychological approaches are essential to understanding the 95% of the world population not yet represented in Western psychological literature. They hold great promise for addressing new contexts created by escalating globalization, global power dynamics, increasing migration, and an ever more interconnected world. This book expands upon international and intersectional approaches by transcending nation-state comparisons and extending intersectionality to include historical, sociopolitical, economic, and other global factors to the analysis of interconnected oppressive institutions. Most importantly, this book describes how to begin to decolonize Western psychology in practical terms, allowing readers to apply the principles in their own work moving forward. It necessitates a respectful, egalitarian, collaborative approach to partnering with communities despite asymmetrical power relations. Elevating the unrepresented perspectives of the 95% will help decenter Western frameworks, ultimately resulting in a deeper, more pluralistic understanding of human psychology and well-being.
