Abstract

Indigenous psychologies (IPs) are a collection of traditions from different parts of the world, with no one orientation towards philosophy of science. Early conceptualization of IPs as autonomous bodies of indigenous knowledge appear to be unworkable. Rather, IPs may better be considered as interconnected networks of cultural knowledge and practice, enabled by local associations of like-minded people with an affinity for enacting psychology as collaborative and community-based practice. A shared commitment to relational ethics, acknowledging human agency and responsiveness to community needs, shows promise as a philosophical basis for facilitating dialogue between Chinese and Māori approaches to IP.
