Description
This book analyzes the dynamics of psychological resilience in postcolonial societies, highlighting the collective coping mechanisms developed in the face of historical trauma and contemporary challenges. Drawing on interdisciplinary approaches from psychology, sociology and postcolonial studies, the study examines resilience as both an individual and collective process, deeply rooted in memory, culture and social structures.The book explores colonial legacies, structural violence and the normalization of adversity, while highlighting the role of spirituality, social creativity, humor and solidarity in constructing narratives of survival. It also highlights the invisible psychological costs of resilience, such as collective fatigue and the internalization of injustice. Finally, the analysis opens up contemporary perspectives on globalization, diasporas and identity recomposition, proposing a critical and nuanced reading of resilience in postcolonial societies.
