Abstract

I first reflect critically on various aspects of the hegemonic Psychology that are relevant to the discussions on pluralism. I then offer the Self-reflective transformational-transformative Worldview in order to find ways for the psychological. I outline only few inter-related notions of this seriously pluralistic radical (post)metaphysical and (post)metatheoretical orientation that is grounded in principle. For example, (i) I delineate the three inter-dependent and indispensible realms of the psychological that are highly differentiated in terms of their ontology–epistemology–semantics, intra-paradigmatic dialectical negotiations between their micro- and macro-poles in their own times, and other characteristics of their dialectically communicational and time-dependent self-organizing complex systems.(ii) I introduce the Triopus as a generic and contextually contingent metaphor of this conceptual matrix in place of the traditional ‘unit of analysis’. (iii) I suggest, against the ‘unity of knowledge’, further alternative hermeneutics such as Transformational Trialectics, Transformative Triangulation, and Reflexive Consilience to the dialogue on pluralism towards relational and coherently connected co-ordinations in psychological studies.
