Cultural practices and artifacts, in their multiple and varied forms, are grounded on values, which are so deeply internalized by people that usually remain in the background, as taken-for-granted guides for interpretations and decisions in everyday life. Shaping individual moral horizons is at the core of socialization processes, through which older generations aim to disseminate their culturally established values to the new ones, making use of suggestions mainly implicit in daily experiences and interactions. Despite the strength of these processes of cultural canalization, people find particular ways of positioning and interpreting social suggestions, drawing singular life trajectories a...

This book is not only a direct study of gardens, but also an exploration of the relationship between personal and collective culture, an important component of cultural psychology. This perspective leads to the strange but fascinating question: "How does gardening relate to human development?" Exploring the meaning of “garden” for a human being offers profound insights on the relationship between personal and collective culture. In the process of constructing of a garden, nature becomes the object, on which various liminal, aesthetic, and symbolic activities are directly performed. The term “garden” encompasses a multitude of meanings. It is a place for recreation as well as a symbol...

William Stern was an important German psychologist. What remains rather preserved from his scientific heritage is centered around the notion of intelligence and differential psychology. Yet, Stern’s scientific work is more complex than that. For instance, William Stern has laid the groundwork for a philosophical system – called critical personology – being a groundwork for the psychological sciences in general. This book tries to restore and expand Stern’s philosophical ideas of critical personology while showing pathways how to apply this expansion to applied fields of psychology such as career counselling, psychological mediation, psychotherapy, personnel selection among many other...

This book is a synthesis of important topics in studying multilingualism: dynamic multilingualism, translanguaging, language policy, bilingual education, and bilingualism and cognition. The author as an immigrant herself integrated personal and dramatic experiences around most of the topics to show how they influence the lives of immigrants around the globe. The author’s aim is to reach the readers in a personal way. The issue of translanguaging and social justice is crucial for the book. The studies on bilingualism and cognition give amazing results on how bilingual children profit from increased metalinguistic awareness, abstract thinking, creativity, working memory, attention control, t...

  • Publisher: IAP

This book presents an integrative perspective on home or Heimat showing that it is much more than the place we were born or where we live. This book brings fresh theoretical and empirical perspectives on what home is and can be from different viewpoints. The chapters invite the reader to face challenging questions of what we learn about Heimat, when it is taken from us, threatened, left on purpose or when we set out on the journey to find one. The chapters are written by psychologists throughout, but are expanded in perspective by comments from the groups of people featured in the chapters, who are thus given their own voice. The book concludes with a suggestion on how to unite all the diffe...

Processos de subjetivação:

"Com o intuito de bordejar a complexidade do conceito de sujeito, propomos então uma discussão sobre alguns dos fundamentos da ideia de subjetividade e seus movimentos no interior do saber psi. Pensamos em sustentar o conceito de subjetividade como uma ferramenta crítica, ou seja, manter a reflexão da subjetividade/subjetivação como uma força de oposição contra possíveis movimentos de objetivação do humano. Os trabalhos aqui apresentados buscam trazer sonoridade ao campo polissêmico dos modos de subjetivação, não no sentido de apreendê-lo para dominá-lo, mas para se indagar sobre o campo aberto a transformações dos modos de subjetivação."

Docência no ensino militar

No topo das avaliações de desempenho da educação brasileira como o Enem e o Ideb da última década, aparecem os colégios militares superando a média nacional. O quadro Soletrando, do programa Caldeirão do Huck, da Rede Globo, também é uma das vitrines que exibem egressos das escolas militares, jovens admiráveis e bem articulados, com um notável arcabouço de cultura, ciência, valores e bons hábitos. O que falta na escola civil tradicional para alcançar o mesmo mérito dos colégios militares? Este livro se propõe a estudar essas instituições, conhecer e examinar a didática do ensino militar com a finalidade de identificar as receitas que, experimentadas há 130 anos, torna...

The ubiquitous presence of imaginative work points at its importance among the higher mental functions. This collective volume discusses both the social relevance of imagination, that cannot be reduced to an inter-individual feature, and the cultural-historical conditions of imagining. The authors develop different theoretical and empirical works in which imagining, planning, anticipating, remembering and acting are put in relation with crucial moments of human existence, as early as birth and even after death. The proposal of this volume emerged during a “kitchen seminar” session at the III International Seminar of Cultural Psychology in Salvador da Bahia (Brazil, 2017). The debate revo...
