Resumen: |
La desigualdad económica ha sido de considerable interés para académicos, ciudadanos y polÃticos de todo el mundo durante la última década, y si bien la desigualdad económica ha atraÃdo una cantidad considerable de atención de la investigación, sólo más recientemente los investigadores han considerado que la desigualdad económica puede tener implicaciones sociales más amplias. . Sin embargo, si bien hay una imagen cada vez más clara de las diversas formas en que la desigualdad económica daña el tejido social, existe una comprensión relativamente pobre de los procesos psicológicos sociales que operan en sociedades desiguales. Este libro editado tiene como objetivo aprovechar esta área emergente de investigación reuniendo a investigadores que están a la vanguardia de este desarrollo y que, por lo tanto, pueden brindar información oportuna a académicos y profesionales que están lidiando con el impacto de la desigualdad económica. Este libro abordará cuestiones relacionadas con las percepciones de la desigualdad, los mecanismos subyacentes a los efectos de la desigualdad, las diversas consecuencias de la desigualdad y los factores que contribuyen al mantenimiento de la desigualdad. El público objetivo son estudiantes de nivel avanzado de pregrado o posgrado, asà como académicos y profesionales en el campo. El libro llena un nicho de relevancia tanto aplicada como práctica, enfatizando fuertemente la teorÃa y la integración de diferentes perspectivas en psicologÃa social. Dado el amplio interés en la desigualdad dentro de las ciencias sociales, el libro será accesible para sociólogos y politólogos, asà como para psicólogos sociales, organizacionales y del desarrollo. Las ideas reunidas en La psicologÃa social de la desigualdad contribuirán a una comprensión más amplia de los costos de gran alcance de la desigualdad para la salud social de una sociedad y sus ciudadanos. |

Summary : |
Economic inequality has been of considerable interest to academics, citizens, and politicians worldwide for the past decade–and while economic inequality has attracted a considerable amount of research attention, it is only more recently that researchers have considered that economic inequality may have broader societal implications. However, while there is an increasingly clear picture of the varied ways in which economic inequality harms the fabric of society, there is a relatively poor understanding of the social psychological processes that are at work in unequal societies. This edited book aims to build on this emerging area of research by bringing together researchers who are at the forefront of this development and who can therefore provide timely insight to academics and practitioners who are grappling with the impact of economic inequality. This book will address questions relating to perceptions of inequality, mechanisms underlying effects of inequality, various consequences of inequality and the factors that contribute to the maintenance of inequality. The target audiences are students at advanced undergraduate or graduate level, as well as scholars and professionals in the field. The book fills a niche of both applied and practical relevance, strongly emphasizing theory and integration of different perspectives in social psychology. Given the broad interest in inequality within the social sciences, the book will be accessible to sociologists and political scientists as well as social, organizational, and developmental psychologists. The insights brought together in The Social Psychology of Inequality will contribute to a broader understanding of the far-reaching costs of inequality for the social health of a society and its citizens. |
