  • Title: Globalization, neo-liberalism and community psychology.
    Author: Nafstad HE, Blakar RM, Carlquist E, Phelps JM, Rand-Hendriksen K.
    Journal: Am J Community Psychol; 2009 Mar; 43(1-2):162-75. PubMed ID: 19130214.
    Abstract:
    A longitudinal analysis (1984-2005) of media language in Norway is presented, demonstrating how the current globalized capitalist market ideology is now permeating this long-established Scandinavian welfare state. This ideological shift carries powerful implications for community psychology, as traditional welfare state values of equal services based on a universalistic principle are set aside, and social and material inequalities are increasingly accepted. The methodology developed in the present study may serve as a "barometer of community changes", to borrow a metaphor used by Sarason (2000).
