چکیده (انگلیسی):

This paper engages the theme of “decolonizing psychological science” in the context of a perspective on psychological theory
and research—namely , feminist psychology—that shares an emphasis on broad liberation. Although conceived as a universal
theory and practice of liberation, scholars across diverse sites have suggested that feminism—perhaps especially as it manifests
in psychological science—is not always compatible with and at times is even contradictory to global struggles for decolonization.
The liberatory impulse of feminist psychology falls short of its potential not only because of its grounding in neocolonial legacies
of hegemonic feminisms, but also because of its complicity with neocolonial tendencies of hegemonic psychological science.
In response to these concerns, we draw upon on perspectives of transnational feminisms and cultural psychology as tools to
decolonize (feminist) psychology . We then propose the possibility of a (transnational) feminist psychology that takes the
epistemological position of people in various marginalized majority-world settings as a resource to rethink conventional scientific
wisdom and liberate “liberation”. Rather than freeing some women to better participate in global domination, a transnational
feminist psychology illuminates sustainable ways of being that are consistent with broader liberation of humanity in general.
