Abstract

LAGES, Sônia Regina Corrêa. Metodologia de pesquisa em psicossociologia: Estudos sobre o campo religioso afro-brasileiro a partir dos estudos pós-coloniais. Psicol. Am. Lat. [online]. 2013, n.24, pp.83-96. ISSN 1870-350X.

This article presents a reflection about the necessity to insert post-colonial thought and subaltern studies in psycho-sociological researches, aiming to consolidate new methodological approaches that may guide the translation of self-representation narratives of social minorities. This discussion is exemplified by texts of two medium women, members of African-Brazilian religion Umbanda. Those texts deal with the spiritual entities "Preto-velho" and "Pomba-gira". Such narratives show the inscription of subaltern voices, both in overcoming the history of social-cultural oppression and marginalization and in denouncing oppressive mechanisms that built and build the subaltern condition.

Keywords : post-colonial studies; methodology; psycho-sociology; subaltern voices; african-Brazilian religious field.
