La presente obra arranca de una convicción: la reflexión filosófica no transcurre en el clima aséptico de una aislada campana de cristal, ni en las alturas incontaminadas de cualquier figurada estratosfera; por el contrario, al tener lugar en medio de unas condiciones culturales determinadas, no puede marginarse de ellas, sino que ha de afrontar su concreta ubicación y hacerse cargo de la problemática humana que desde su entorno emerge. A esa intención responden estas páginas sobre Filosofía y crítica de la cultura en las que, bajo ese título, se desarrollan tres líneas de trabajo interrelacionadas: - el autoesclarecimiento de la filosofía, atendiendo a su dimensión constituyente de crítica de la cultura; -el esclarecimiento de la compleja realidad cultural del hombre; -el análisis de algunos problemas filosóficos cruciales planteados en la actual encrucijada de nuestro modelo civilizatorio. La primera parte de la obra aborda la filosofía como producto cultural a través del cual la misma cultura se autocritica. Tras seguir la pista a las relaciones de la filosofía con otros productos de la esfera cognitiva de la cultura ?mito, ciencia e ideología, atendiendo también a su relación con el modo de pensar utópico?, se desemboca en la propuesta de una filosofía crítico-hermenéutica de la cultura. La segunda parte ahonda en las bases antropológicas de la cultura y su dinámica. Transitando por la vía que conduce desde una filosofía de la cultura hacia una filosofía del hombre, se ilumina a la vez el camino de una filosofía crítica que no elude la dimensión normativa requerida para abordar el trayecto que va de la hominización a la humanización. La última parte se centra en problemas cruciales como los que hoy representan la tensión entre universalismo y particularismo, con el consiguiente cuestionamiento de las pretensiones universalistas de la razón, incluida la razón moral, desde la diversidad cultural, o el debate en torno al progreso, habida cuenta de la ambigüedad inerradicable de la historia. Apuntando a las condiciones necesarias para un nuevo humanismo transcultural se trata de afrontar la gran alternativa de nuestro tiempo: «humanismo o barbarie».

Since the mid-1980s, the psychology of liberation movement has been a catalyst for collective and individual change in communities throughout Latin America, and beyond; and recent political developments are making its powerful, transformative ideas more relevant than ever before. Psychology of Liberation: Theory and Applications updates the activist frameworks developed by Ignacio Martin-Baro and Paulo Freire with compelling stories from the frontlines of conflict in the developing and developed worlds, as social science and psychological practice are allied with struggles for peace, justice, and equality. In these chapters, liberation is presented as both an ongoing process and a core dimension of wellbeing, entailing the reconstruction of social identity and the transformation of all parties involved, both oppressed and oppressors. It also expands the social consciousness of professionals, bringing more profound meaning to practice and enhancing related areas such as peace psychology, as shown in articles such as these: Philippines: the role of liberation movements in the transition to democracy. Venezuela: liberation psychology as a therapeutic intervention with street youth. South Africa: the movement for representational knowledge. Muslim world: religion, the state, and the gendering of human rights. Ireland: linking personal and political development. Australia: addressing issues of racism, identity, and immigration. Colombia: building cultures of peace from the devastation of war. Psychology of Liberation demonstrates the commitment to overcome social injustices and oppression. The book is a critical resource for social and community psychologists as well as policy analysts. It can also be used as a text for graduate courses in psychology, sociology, social work and community studies.
