DORNA, Alexandre. The rehabilitation of a lost paradigm: political psychology.Mariana Luzia Aron,  Mariana Rocha Oliveira. []. , 21, 50, pp.4-25. ISSN 2175-1390.

Abstract We observe a serious epistemological crisis in the human and social sciences. The different disciplines conflict in multiple self-reproducing micro-theories. The lack of a common paradigm makes multidisciplinary approaches difficult. In this sense, the rehabilitation of political psychology has a unifying role, configuring itself as a transversal heuristic approach, where political and sociological variables are understood as a historical and cultural whole. In addition, Political Psychology is able to analyze the main problems of contemporary society with an overview and to inaugurate new fields of research on democratic weaknesses and the freezing of political elites.
