      abstract = {This book brings together a selection of theoretical  reflections, empirical researches and professional  experiences to showcase the increasing production of  psychological studies in rural contexts developed in Latin  America in recent years. Psychologys tradition of science  and eminently urban profession has produced a void of  reflections and approaches on important actors of the  societies that constitute their existence in rural contexts  and in relation whether of integration, conflicts and  contradictions with urban agents. But a new generation of  psychologists are turning their attention to rural  contexts, especially in Latin America. This volume aims to  present a selection of these psychological studies and  interventions developed in rural contexts from a  psychosocial and interdisciplinary perspective, developed  together with various social actors who live and work in  rural spaces, that have an important relationship with land  and nature both in terms of the elaboration of their  history, the production of their subjectivities and  identity ties with the territory, and the engagement in  struggles for the right to land and for public policies  that guarantee access to education and health services,  technical assistance and infrastructure for its working  activities. The book is divided in five parts, each one  dedicated to a dimension of psychosocial studies and  interventions in rural contexts: theoretical approaches;  mental health and rural populations; social movements,  communities and resistance practices; gender relations and  subjectivation processes; and environment and  sustainability. Chapters in each axis prioritize reports of  experiences and research conducted with participatory  approaches, producing new perspectives and reflections that  contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the field of  psychology, both regionally and globally.},
