Instead of considering what the products of policy are - often the case in psychological and political science work - this book examines the individual processes present in proposing and engaging with policy. The individual who engages with the policy and its meanings, the individual who resists the policy through conformity, and the individual who writes the policy for their own ideological purposes are all political actors in a psychological system. This book puts forward a cultural political psychology as the psychological study of the process of values, policy, and power dynamics. Through exploring public policy through private policy generation and individual interaction, this book pushes theoretical understandings of policy and activism in new ways. Centering on an individual?s own values in facing various policy restrictions from governments, parents, or peers, the importance of examining collective actions and also collective inactions of individuals is noted and expanded on in the text. The book provides applications of its arguments through examining the processes of unionization and actualized democracy. It seeks to point out new research avenues, including the hypogeneralization of values, one?s exclusion through activism, and everyday revolutions. This book addresses the centrality of the individual and meaning-making systems when considering where policy, politics, and psychology intersect. This book is primarily addressed to psychologists and political scientists interested in how to make change in public policy. While the experiences within the book are United States-centric, the thoughts and theories behind them are meant to be applicable to a wide variety of political systems. As there is currently very little literature on the topic, this book seeks to fill the gap and offer concise information on such an important dimension of culturaland political psychology. It is expected that the book will be of great interest for researchers in these areas, as well as for graduate-level students. In particular, this book will be relevant to researchers and students working on political psychology, public policy, development, community psychology, social representations, semiotics, activism, and social movements, to name a few. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Psychology and Cultural Developmental Science,$x2626-675X 606 $aPsychology 606 $aPersonality 606 $aDifference (Psychology) 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aCommunity psychology 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aBehavioral Sciences and Psychology 606 $aPersonality and Differential Psychology 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aCommunity Psychology 606 $aDevelopment Studies 615 0$aPsychology. 615 0$aPersonality. 615 0$aDifference (Psychology) 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aCommunity psychology. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 14$aBehavioral Sciences and Psychology. 615 24$aPersonality and Differential Psychology. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aCommunity Psychology. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 676 $a320.520973 676 $a320.6019 700 $aCarriere$b Kevin R.$01252298 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910585790103321 996 $aPsychology in Policy$92902968 997 $aUNINA
