Geopolitical Psychology: An Emerging Perspective

ABSTRACT

This article aims to introduce geopolitical psychology as an emerging interdisciplinary perspective in psychological science. Broadly defined, this perspective (a) synergizes insights from geography, political economy, and psychology, and (b) broadens and deepens the understanding of the society–psychology nexus and its transformations vis-à-vis the transactions of the person and the historical, current, and imagined geopolitical contexts. We propose eight propositions to organize currently disparate research on geopolitical psychology and guide future investigations in this field. We also elaborate on the methodology of geopolitical psychology. We believe that geopolitical psychology can deepen the understanding of key social and psychological phenomena, offer new theoretical insights, lead to critical interrogations of received social representations, and inspire collective actions to change the status quo. We also expect geopolitical psychology to be able to address past critiques of intrapersonal psychology as a socially indifferent science, and conceptually and methodologically connect psychological science with its cognate disciplines in humanities and social sciences.
