Abstract

The language of psychology is the language of power which is well hidden, powerful, transformative and productive in understandings. As a hidden language of power, psychology determines the individuals as “normal” and “abnormal” by using its scientific character and according to these statutes, individuals act in their social world. Their psychologically appropriate practices are transformed into psychological knowledge and also knowledge of power in turn. But the individuality on which psychological knowledge is based is kept on to reproduce itself in languages of different non-western cultures wherever psychology gets in. By doing so liberal individuality becomes stronger in these cultural practices. As a matter of fact, postmodernist psychology's language also continues to strengthen this individuality in a hidden way.
