Klappentext zu „Positive Nations and Communities “
This book approaches the field of positive psychology from a post-modern perspective. It explores the consequences of combining current trends and models with supplementary participatory and transformative methods. The book brings a more collective, qualitative, culturally sensitive and transformative approach to the processes of making sense and implementing the science of positive psychology. It moves beyond the individual level towards a "knowledge community" and "knowledge of the communities". The book is an invitation to more participatory and polyphonic dialogues in the field of positive psychology.
