Community psychology as social science : towards an ecosystemic alternative

This study disaggregates and evaluates conventional community
psychology as reflected in both the Community Mental Health and Social
Action Models. In so doing, it provides evidence in support of its plea
for a radical paradigm shift towards ecosystemic theorising in the field
of community psycho logy. It further illustrates that an ecosystemic
point of departure would have significant implications for the
reformulation of conventional notions of community. It concludes by
teasing out some alternative praxis related community psychological
formulations. / Psychology / M.A. (Clinical Psychology)
