An analysis of the influence of social psychology on emerging Latin American political psychology, highlighting different social psychology schools. The convergence of different schools of social psychology with political & economic trends during the 1970s resulted in the autonomous field of Latin American political psychology in the second half of the 1980s. In proposing a critical political psychology for Latin America, it is argued that this field is currently facing the same kinds of challenges in relation to European & North American schools of political psychology that social psychology underwent in the 1970s. 43 References.
