Eco-localismos y resiliencia comunitaria frente a la crisis civilizatoria
En todo el mundo existen multitud de iniciativas comunitarias regeneradoras que tratan de responder a la crisis multidimensional.

Global Work-Related Suffering as a Priority for Vocational Psychology
Building on the recommendations in the article “An Emancipatory Communitarian Approach to Vocational Development Theory, Research, and Practice” by David Blustein, Ellen McWhirter, and Justin Perry, a critical and global perspective on the challenge facing vocational psychologists who adopt an emancipatory communitarian approach is developed. Attention to the most pressing needs of the global unemployed and working poor will be critical. Most psy…

While these images and related processes of globalization are increasing awareness of poverty, civil strife, and human rights abuses in the Third World, few people in the First World seem to care about changing these painful realities.

Beyond Cross-Cultural Psychologr
The psychocultural position of Third World women employed in the assembly plants of multinational enterprises is examined on the basis of well-documented accounts of their working conditions. In particular, it is argued that the impact of working conditions on stress related psychological symptoms can only be understood in the light of socio-historical and cultural analyses. An example of such an analysis, developed along lines sketched by Theodo…
