Descripción
Sumario:This article problematizes the consolidation of a decolonial feminist stance in the academic-political transmission of the history and epistemology of Psychology for undergraduate courses. The academic, political and institutional trajectory of the author is taken as a detailed study of the complexities that inhabit theoretical and practical training in fields such as Psychology and Decolonial Feminism. Towards a subversive critical position from the feminist project of the Global South, a proposal for a geopolitical understanding of society, subjectivity and, consequently, Psychology is presented. Then, through an intersectional theoretical-political stance, it is pointed out how gender, race, class, sexuality and territory forge and tension the project of Psychology as a science and profession. Finally, we defend an education in Psychology which supports the endless dispute that inhabits the conflicting historiographical, epistemological, theoretical-methodological, conceptual and ethical-political perspectives surrounding the study and intervention in the know-how of Psychology.
