Navigating epistemic injustice in early childhood education: Teachers’ views on children with Down syndrome
Children with Down syndrome, along with other conditions, may face more frequently acts of epistemic injustice because of their social status and common beliefs about their intellectual abilities. They face risks of having their knowledge and perspectives ignored or silenced despite institutional claims of equity and inclusion. This research examines how epistemic injustices is understood in kindergartens, focusing on children with Down syndrome …

Grey Zones, Ambiguous Zones: A Cogenetic and Dialogical Understanding of Sexual Consent
In this article, we seek to articulate cogenetic and dialogical theory to understand the dynamics of ambiguities in human lives, using the phenomena of negotiating sexual relations as the empirical arena. We are interested in the factors that contribute to the maintenance of ambiguity in interpreting communicative messages in settings where experiences are characterized by ambivalence and ambiguity. We highlight ambiguity as a fundamental charact…
The Role of Circle time in Cultivating Social-Emotional Skills and Teacher-Child Relationships: A Study in a Brazilian Public Kindergarten
Knowledge is a Common

Environmental justice has emerged as a critical concern within global psychology, demanding a thorough reconsideration of how psychological theory and practice can address the global escalating environmental crisis and social inequality. This special issue, led by the International Environmental Justice Committee (IEJC) of the APA Society of Global Psychology (Div 52), explores ecological epistemologies situated within diverse cultural frameworks…
Inclusion of immigrant students with special educational needs in Nordic countries: A systematic review
Doping Existential Despair: Mindful of the Exotic Lure
The paper builds on (von Fircks, E. Integr. psych. Behav. Sci. 2023) article on mindfulness meditation analysed in a Meadian perspective.

Then, the consequences of adopting the whole philosophical system of Eastern perspectives are envisaged. Finally, a proposal for a truly ecological shift in the study of self is proposed
The use of branded clothing in identity development and social relations between adolescents
Branded clothes and accessories are objects whose meaning extends beyond their use value. Branded items are widely used and consumed by adolescents worldwide, affecting their perception of themselves and of others. Then, how does the use of branded clothes and accessories relate to the identity development and the social relations between adolescents? To answer, we present the result of a netnographic case study focusing on a Brazilian young man,…

Experiences of Epistemic Injustice among Minority Language Students Aged 6–16 in the Nordics: A Literature Review
Background: Scandinavian education systems are recognized as being particularly inclusive. Nevertheless, an inclusive approach to education risks adopting a patronizing attitude that silences the voices of the very people who should be included. To discuss the role of epistemic justice in inclusion, we investigated current knowledge about the epistemic injustice experienced by students from immigrant backgrounds in Scandinavia; teacher perception…
Cultural mediation of grief: The role of aesthetic experience
In Global North’s psychology, some existential experiences such as the loss of beloved persons are understood as purely individual problems. In a society of functioning individuals, the person is responsible for her own condition and for consuming the healthcare services provided to overcome the “problem” as soon as possible to go back to the fully functional role in the society. This vision raises several questions about turning “experiences” in…
Remaking time: Cultural semiotic transformations of temporality during the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown
This paper investigates one aspect of meaning making that occurs in the wake of systemic change. It addresses the question of how time is re-configured by socio-material changes resultant from the COVID-19 pandemic. Employing a semiotic perspective, we aim to describe a process of disruption and distress, which leads to a recognition of the oddness of ‘covid-time.’ This is characterised by distressing ‘suspended waiting’, a despairing frozen temp…
New Perspectives on Mind-Wandering
A quest for global psychology
In this article we discuss the decolonisation of psychology by constructing a project that is open to diversity and transdisciplinarity, rather than providing hyper-fragmented technical knowledge. In the iconic Manifesto antropófago (1928), the poet Oswald de Andrade (1890–1954) claimed the original and creative capability of Brazilian modernist culture to elaborate in original ways the European, Indio and African heritage. We discuss the anthrop…
Commitment for Change
Spontaneous Dramatization as Dialogical Space in the School Context
The use of dramatization as teaching/learning methodology, useful for the improvement of social, emotional, creative skills, and for the acquisition of knowledge on subject matters such as history, is an established field of research and practice. Yet, there are very few studies on children’s spontaneous dramatization in educational context and its potential role in development. The term dramatization, as we will use here, refers to the human act…
Drama-in-Education for Understanding: An Investigation from the Perspective of Cultural Psychology of Semiotic Mediation
A voz das mentes famintas: A relevância de Danilo Dolci para a Psicologia Cultural da Educação
Danilo Dolci (1924-1997) foi um intelectual italiano, ativista social, sociólogo, educador popular e poeta, que passou a maior parte de sua vida nas áreas rurais da Sicília, tentando desenvolver uma visão progressista da educação como parte da emancipação da população da pobreza e do crime organizado. O cerne da pedagogia de Dolci era a ideia do cidadão como aprendiz e do aprendiz como cidadão. O ideal de educação promovido, também se referindo a…
The voice of hungry minds: The relevance of Danilo Dolci for the Cultural Psychology of Education
Danilo Dolci (1924-1997) was an Italian intellectual, social activist, sociologist, popular educator, and poet, who spent his life in the rural areas of Sicily, trying to develop a progressive view of education as part of the population’s development and liberation from both poverty and organized crime. The core of Dolci’s pedagogy was the idea of the citizen as a learner and the learner as a citizen. His ideal of education, also referring to Fre…
The affective logic of race: A cultural psychological analysis of racial signifying practices
In this article, we use the theoretical framework of affective logic to discuss the underlying cultural psychological aspects of racial signifying practices. We provide an analysis of the controversies around the music video “Vai Malandra,” by Brazilian pop singer Anitta, as a case study. Departing from the theoretical assumption that our primary relationship with the phenomenal world is affective (though culturally mediated), we argue that our p…
The Pandemic Atmos-Fear
Psychology has been challenged by its own terminological limitations, in which phenomena of large-scale, field-like kind force us to innovate with our theoretical tools. Phenomena with global impacts – epidemics, pandemics, famines, and the like – remain on the periphery of psychology’s theoretical efforts. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 is no different. Like previous pandemics, it reveals the difficulty of dealing with phenomena on a glob…
University without Borders
The paper discusses the problem of master theses’ production in psychology from a decolonial perspective. It presents a critique to the reproductive and monological model of knowledge currently promoted in higher education. Then, it proposes an alternative pedagogic model of research-tandem. The research-tandem is an example of an innovative way of understanding a university without borders, as developed within the international network of excell…

The Italian Extreme Right On-line Network: An Exploratory Study Using an Integrated Social Network Analysis and Content Analysis Approach
All over the world, extreme right activists and neo-nazis are using the Internet as a tool for communication and recruitment in order to avoid national laws and police investigations. The last 10 years have seen both the diffusion of CMC environments and the rise of extreme right movements in several European countries. This study investigates the structure of the Italian extreme right network, taking into account the latest trends in the social …

Passing” and its effects on Brazilian transgender people's sense of belonging to society: A theoretical study
Passing is the research of oneself by trying to look and to be seen as a member of a social group by assuming its features. Individuals performing this process are willing to undergo several physical and behavioural changes to achieve this aspiration. Passing generally occurs among members of minority groups suffering discrimination who want to diminish the psycho‐social discomfort of their experience. Examples of passing are the attempts by ethn…
The Presence of Grief: Research-Based Art and Arts-Based Research on Grief
The authors involved in the creation of this text collaborate on a research project called The Culture of Grief, which explores the current conditions and implications of grief. The authors mostly employ conventional forms of qualitative inquiry, but the present text represents an attempt to reach a level of understanding not easily obtained through conventional methods. The group of authors participated as members of the audience in an avant-gar…
Education as “Dilemmatic Field
What do you mean by "teacher"?psychological research on teacher professional identity
Teacher Professional Identity is today an autonomous theoretical construct. The paper explores the dimensions of TPI stressed in psychological and educational research, presenting different answers provided to questions such as: Which dimensions have been taken into account to define what a teacher is? The image of teachers actually emerging from literature analysis points out vectors of tension between "mainstream" Social Representations of teac…
The Golem of Psychology and the Ecosystemic Epistemology
The old controversy about the epistemic status of psychological sciences is useless and sterile. Psychology is ether a hard science nor a soft science. It is an ecological life science, whose object is the whole system of co-developmental relations constituted by the presence of the organism in a given environment. After criticizing the positions of the traditional epistemic debate between hard and soft views of psychology, I propose a way to fun…
The cultures of grief: The practice of post-mortem photography and iconic internalized voices
I develop an exploratory analysis of “post-mortem photography”, a social practice existing in different cultures. The study, part of a larger project in Denmark, “The culture of grief”, combines Dialogical Self Theory, mainly concerning verbal and textual objects, with the iconic framework of affective semiosis to discuss the function of taking and keeping pictures of dead persons as if they were still alive or just sleeping. How can this practic…

Giambattista Vico and the principles of cultural psychology: A programmatic retrospective
The Italian philosopher Giambattista Vico developed a theoretical framework for the study of human sciences that exerted a strong influence on psychology and other human sciences. He backed the notion of the unity of knowledge about human mind and culture, including history, linguistics, philosophy, philology, epistemology, psychology, and for the first time proposed a method for their study that he ambitiously called ‘new science’. The article p…

Atmos-fear: A psycho-semiotic analysis of messages in New York everyday life
We live in societies emphasizing security and its complementary side of fear. In this work, I analyze the peripheral messages disseminated in the urban environment, whose function is that of regulating human and collective conduct through orienting specific forms of affective meaning-making. According to the perspective of Cultural Psychology of Semiotic Dynamics, affect and cognition work always together. Affect has the primacy in the relationsh…

The "fascist" discourse in computer mediated communication: The "dual strategy" model of the Italian Extreme Right
The study is about the identity construction of Italian Extreme Right groups in different Computer Mediated Communication (CMC) environments. Rhetoric Psychology and Critical Discourse Analysis joint approaches are used to analyse two websites and two newsgroups of extreme right. The results confirm Billig's hypothesis that such groups play a dual communication strategy in Computer Mediated Communication, addressing in different ways to the outgr…

Generalization as creative and reflective act: Revisiting Lewin’s conflict between Aristotelian and Galileian modes of thought in psychology
It is argued that generalization in psychology is a creative, interpretative, and reflective act of thought, by accessing a higher level of abstraction from meaningful events. In the context of clarification of this claim, a fresh look at Lewin’s argumentation about the “Aristotelian” and “Galileian” epistemologies will be useful. Lewin’s ideas illuminate the contemporary debate about individual cases, lawfulness, and theory in psychology. Finall…

Giambattista Vico and the psychological imagination
This special issue originates from an international workshop on “Vico and imagination,” that took place at Aalborg University in 2014, within a research project on Giambattista Vico and the epistemology of psychology. Imagination has inexplicably been relegated to the background in contemporary psychology, despite the fact that imaginative processes are involved in even the most mundane activities. In this editorial, I first present the rationale…

Gulliver’s Eggs: Why Methods are not an Issue of Qualitative Research in Cultural Psychology
Toward a cogenetic cultural psychology
The dialogue between cultural psychology and phenomenological and semiotic philosophy seems to be extremely promising. I have tried to present some relevant aspects of this dialogue and to use them as cornerstones to elaborate a metatheoretical and epistemological discourse about the way of building and understanding concepts. Semiotic approaches show how humans, as meaning-making beings, experience the world in the form of totalities that emerge…
Poetic destroyers. Vico, Emerson and the aesthetic dimension of experiencing
The aesthetic dimension of meaning-making in human conduct has been often overlooked. In this article, “aesthetic” refers to an immediate form of experiencing in which affective, ethical and cognitive dimensions are experienced as a totality, rather than a more restrictive meaning of artistic experience. The philosopher Giambattista Vico (1670–1744) developed the concept of “poetic logic,” that is a specific mode of thought typical of early stage…

The meaning of work and cultural psychology: Ideas for new directions
Work is one arena in which human beings constitute their identities and participate in collective-cultural enterprises. But research on factors affecting the meaning of work and its outcomes focuses mostly on individual-level variables related to workers’ experience. However, scholars have recently proposed a shift towards a more collective dimension of meaningfulness, in particular, the cultural level. This article discusses and expands on this …

The Odyssey is one of the highest products of human creation of all times. In the book Mythos and Voice, Charles Underwood presents an innovative perspective on this work of art, discussing the development of the main characters by the light of psychological and anthropological theories. Then, he discusses the dialogical theories of ontogenetic development using the characters of Odyssey as specimen. I finally suggest that the Underwood’s insight…
Who wants to keep me a puppet? Pinocchio’s tale as a metaphor of developmental processes
Pinocchio is one of the most widely read pieces of children’s literature, and has been translated into 200 languages. It has evoked metaphors of childhood’s condition, early description of autism, disruptive behavior, moral development, or even hyperactivity. Less attention has been paid to the aspects of transgenerational relationships, the child’s development trajectory, and their inherent ambivalence, though these are all very relevant in the …
