VILLA GOMEZ, Juan David. THE ACTION AND THE PSYCHOSOCIAL APPROACH OF THE INTERVENTION IN SOCIAL CONTEXTS: CAN WE MOVE FROM THE FASHION TO THE THEORETICAL, EPISTEMOLOGICAL, AND METHODOLOGICAL PRECISION. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2012, vol.12, n.2, pp.349-365. ISSN 1657-8031.

ABSTRACT: The following article, derived from research, poses the question about a growing issue in Colombia: the increase in projects of psychosocial intervention in diverse social sectors, particularly with victims of the armed conflict, social violence, violence of gender and family, etc., as well as population in a situation of extreme poverty, forced displacement and victims of natural disasters. In relation to this logic of intervention and action, the academic reflection tends to be scarce, unclear and repetitive of concepts and internal disquisitions of the social disciplines, especially of psychology. Therefore, from the work experience, from the research itself and from the processes of psychosocial accompaniment for about 15 years, the author presents a reflective proposal, which implies a look from the social critical thought and a stance that allows to give a framework for the psychosocial action in an emancipatory perspective.

Keywords : Psychosocial intervention; psychosocial perspective; victims.
