Special Issue Release:
Three Decades of Psychology in South Africa
We are pleased to announce the release of the Special Issue of the South African Journal of Psychology (SAJP), focusing on Three Decades of Psychology in South Africa: Legacies of Hope and Fault Lines of the Future.
This special edition commemorates 30 years since the birth of PsySSA in 1994, a pivotal moment in South African psychology. The issue reflects on the achievements, challenges, and ongoing struggles within the discipline, as well as exploring the potential future directions for psychology in the context of the country’s transformation.
The issue is a timely opportunity to critically assess the promises and shortcomings of post-apartheid psychology, its evolution, and its contributions to the goals of democracy, justice, and social well-being. This publication includes theoretical, empirical, and creative contributions that address the future of South African psychology and its role in addressing societal challenges.
