Crossculturele psychologie is een vakgebied dat zich richt op het onderzoeken van culturele verschillen en gelijkenissen in het menselijk denken, voelen en handelen. Het erkent dat de meeste kennis in de psychologie gebaseerd is op onderzoek binnen WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialised, Rich & Democratic)-populaties, wat betekent dat die niet noodzakelijk geldt voor andere culturele contexten. Het is daarom belangrijk om te begrijpen in hoeverre gevestigde psychologische kennis universeel is en waar culturele verschillen optreden, vooral in een samenleving met steeds meer culturele diversiteit.Dit boek begint met het introduceren van de belangrijkste begrippen en theorieën binnen de crossculturele psychologie, evenals de methoden die worden gebruikt in crosscultureel onderzoek. Vervolgens worden belangrijke psychologische thema?s vanuit een crosscultureel perspectief bekeken. Elk thema wordt behandeld aan de hand van actuele crossculturele vragen en wetenschappelijke literatuur die ons inzicht geeft in hoe cultuur onze psychologie mee vormgeeft.In het derde deel van het boek worden de bevindingen uit de eerste twee delen vertaald naar de praktijk. Hier wordt besproken wat de gevonden culturele vari-aties betekenen voor psychologen en psychologisch consulenten die werken in een cultureel diverse samenleving. Het is essentieel dat professionals zich bewust zijn van hun eigen culturele bril en in staat zijn om mensen met verschillende achter-gronden te ondersteunen.Dit boek is bedoeld als een helder en toegankelijk overzicht van crossculturele psychologie, specifiek gericht op studenten (toegepaste) psychologie. Het kan ook dienen als naslagwerk voor iedereen die geïnteresseerd is in culturele gelijkenissen en verschillen in de psychologie. Het biedt een actuele kijk op het vakgebied en benadrukt het belang van interculturele competenties in een diverse samenleving.https://shop.acco.be/nl-be/items/9789464149999/Crossculturele-psychologie

Drawing together international and Indian sources, and new research on the ground in South India, this book presents a unique examination of the inculturation of Christian Worship in India. Paul Collins examines the imperatives underlying the processes of inculturation - the dynamic relationship between the Christian message and cultures, and then explores the outcomes of those processes in terms of architecture, liturgy and ritual and the critique offered of these outcomes, especially by Dalit theologians.

How did the the descendants of Tamerlane, collectively known as the Timurids, make the transition from a nomadic empire to a sedentary polity based on the Perso-Islamic model , and what effect did the process of transition have on their Turko-Mongolian customs and identity? This volume seeks to answer these questions by utilizing the Weberian concepts of the “routinization” of charismatic authority and the patrimonial household state. Focusing on the period of the last Timurid ruler, Sulṭān-Ḥusain Bayqara (1469–1506), the author examines the impact of the introduction of Persian modes of bureaucratic administration on the evolution of Timurid government and describes the development of the agrarian economy of the eastern Iranian province of Khorasan through the Islamic institution of the pious endowment. Based on an exceptionally broad range of sources in Persian, Arabic, and Turkic languages, the book provides a new paradigm for understanding the Timurids within the framework of post-Mongol history and offers fresh insights into Turko-Persian relations and the problem of acculturation in medieval Iran.

Although Africa is today often seen, because of its large number of Christians, as the future hope of the Church, a closer examination of African Christianity, however, shows that the Christian faith has not taken deep root in Africa. Many Africans today declare themselves to be Christians but still remain followers of their traditional African religions, especially in matters concerning the inner dimensions of their lives. It is evident that, in strictly personal matters relating to such issues as passage rites and crises, most Africans turn to their African traditional religions. As an incarnational faith, part of the history of Christianity has been its encounter with other cultures and its becoming deeply rooted in some of these cultures. The central question remains: Why has the Christian faith not taken deep root in Africa? This volume is concerned with answering this question.

This volume explores the religious transformation of each nation in modern Asia. When the Asian people, who were not only diverse in culture and history, but also active in performing local traditions and religions, experienced a socio-political change under the wave of Western colonialism, the religious climate was also altered from a transnational perspective. Part One explores the nationals of China (Taiwan), Hong Kong, Korea, and Japan, focusing on the manifestations of Japanese religion, Chinese foreign policy, the British educational system in Hong Kong in relation to Tibetan Buddhism, the Korean women of Catholicism, and the Scottish impact in late nineteenth century Korea. Part Two approaches South Asia through the topics of astrology, the works of a Gujarātī saint, and Himalayan Buddhism. The third part is focused on the conflicts between ‘indigenous religions and colonialism,’ ‘Buddhism and Christianity,’ ‘Islam and imperialism,’ and ‘Hinduism and Christianity’ in Southeast Asia.
