Reflections on Decoloniality, Liberation and Community Psychology

The aim of this chapter is to follow a path through interstices and intersections, in which communities can be problematized as territories in dispute and transformation, woven from daily actions that account for the meaning of community life, and considering affections, resistances, conflicts, psychosocial damage, collective suffering, and marginalization processes. All this within a context marked by neoliberalism and the prioritization of capital accumulation. We understand Decolonial Community Psychology as a praxis of continuities and struggles, which questions forms of domination and extraction, that brings depth to the liberatory effort, that empowers popular virtues, commits to the capacity for transformation and recovers the current forms of struggle to resist domination and exclusion.
