Explorando el concepto de exclusión social: diferencias entre la psicología social euronorteamericana y la latinoamericana

Exploring the “social exclusion” concept: Differences between Euro-North-American and Latin-American social psychology

Pages 81-92 | Published online: 23 Jan 2014
 

Resumen

Se defiende que el concepto de “exclusión social” tiene un tratamiento diferencial por parte de los psicólogos sociales que se mueven en la órbita euronorteamericana, respecto a los que lo hacen en la latinoamericana. Mientras que los primeros lo consideran como sinónimo de prejuicio, diferenciación social o estereotipia, los segundos lo hacen a partir de consideraciones económicas, políticas y sociales, refiriéndolo básicamente a la pobreza estructural que se vive en estas comarcas.

Abstract

It is argued that the “social exclusion” concept is differently approached by social psychologists working within a Euro-North-American framework and by those working in the Latin-American tradition. While the former tend to consider it as more or less synonymous with prejudice, social difference, or stereotyping, for the latter it is rather an expression of economic, political and social factors, and a consequence of the conditions of structural poverty endemic in these regions.
