This book offers an engaging introduction to cultural and
cross-cultural psychology and offers an interdisciplinary approach to
the key research theories and controversies that impact on human
behaviour in a global context. How is human behavior and experience
intertwined with culture? From this starting point, this second
edition of Cultural Issues in Psychology explores the role of culture
in relation to mainstream and critical perspectives of our discipline.
Beginning with an examination of culture itself, as well as related
concepts such as ethnicity, race and nation, it goes on to trace
historical developments in the role of culture in psychology.
Including a new chapter on migration, and additional coverage of
indigenous psychologies, ethnographic research methods, and
cosmopolitanism, the new edition reflects the latest developments in
this global discipline. Also featuring up-to-date research examples
and revision exercises, the book reviews and explains classic and
contemporary approaches to cultural issues relating to social,
cognitive, developmental and health psychology. Also including
chapters on culture and lifespan, and culture and psychopathology,
this is the essential entry-level text on cultural and cross-cultural
psychology for students taking psychology and related courses.
