SANTOS, Gustavo Alvarenga Oliveira. Contribution of the Rodolfo Kusch's thought for the development of a Latin-American existential psychology. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.1, pp.73-82. ISSN 1809-6867. https://doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2019v25.7.
This text proposes to present the main concepts of the thought of the Argentine philosopher Gunther Rodolfo Kusch and to demonstrate how they can be useful for the construction of a Phenomenological-Existential and/ or Humanist Psychology for the Latin American context. For that, the text briefly introduces the author's thought and, starting from his main concepts: mere-being, being and stay-being, demonstrates how they can be useful for thinking about the psychology in our context, especially that is dedicated to serving marginalized populations.
