Social Psychology and Everyday Life de Darrin Hodgetts

Social Psychology and Everyday Life

Autor Darrin Hodgetts, Ottilie Stolte, Christopher Sonn, Neil Drew, Stuart Carr, Linda Waimarie Nikora
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 feb 2020
This ground-breaking and innovative textbook offers a uniquely global approach to the study of social psychology. Inclusive and outward-looking, the authors consciously re-orientate the discipline of social psychology, promoting a collectivist approach. Each chapter begins with an illustrative scenario based on everyday events, from visiting a local health centre to shopping in a supermarket, which challenges readers to confront the issues that arise in today's diverse, multicultural society. This textbook also gives a voice to many indigenous psychologies that have been excluded from the mainstream discipline and provides crucial coverage of the colonization experience.By integrating core social psychology theories and concepts with critical perspectives, Social Psychology and Everyday Life provides a thought-provoking introduction suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate students of social psychology and community psychology. It can also be used by students in related subjects such as sociology, criminology and other social sciences.Accompanying online resources for this title can be found at bloomsburyonlineresources.com/social-psychology. These resources are designed to support teaching and learning when using this textbook and are available at no extra cost.

Recenzii

As a social psychologist, former child refugee, and as an adult belonging to several stigmatised groups, I have struggled to recommend social psychology textbooks to my students. Too often they treat decolonisation, social and material justice as tagged-on perspectives, providing no more than basic lip-service to their existence and influence. I have often thought that I might be searching for the impossible. This book has made the impossible possible. It will be responsible for educating and transforming future generations of social psychology students.
This book takes a revolutionary approach to social psychology. It disrupts the hegemony of traditional social psychology in a constructive and an enlightened manner. The writing style and level of academic scholarship, coupled with the underlying ideology of each chapter, are so superlatively good that I would not hesitate to recommend this text to academics and students around the world.
A gift to students and established scholars alike. Hodgetts and colleagues have developed an account of social psychology that is rejuvenating and inspiring. This is social psychology as it should be.
This textbook presents a locally responsive, yet internationally-situated, approach to social theory, integrating key thought traditions in psychology. Expertly crafted pedagogical features provide students with a gateway to the intellectually rigorous content.
This book has done more to rekindle my enthusiasm for social psychology than any other textbook. Moving away decisively from the tired recycling of perspectives and even content that characterise so many of its competitor titles, Social Psychology and Everyday Life returns the discipline to the urgency of the world we live in today.
This is a remarkable textbook. Written in engaging language, it offers a comprehensive review of all major areas of social psychology, with lots of interesting and relatable examples.
