ABSTRACT
Sunil Bhatia and Suzanne Kirschner both examine and critique the ways the psychological discipline has been influenced by and continues to operate from largely Eurocentric assumptions and epistemologies. Throughout Kirschner’s career she has explored indigenous psychologies through a post-Freudian psychoanalytic psychology. Bhatia provides both a personal and scholarly view of the field of psychology that is post-colonial in nature and takes into consideration the influence of social cultural contexts and their influence on human identity. Their work explores the complex intersections between individual subjectivity and wider cultural contexts.
