Ignacio Martín-Baró (1942-1989)

一位主張解放心理學的先行者，耶穌會神父，殉道者。

(November 7, 1942 in Valladolid, Castilla y Leon, Spain – November 16, 1989 in San Salvador, El Salvador) 

was a scholar, social psychologist, philosopher and Jesuit priest. 

He was one of the victims of the 1989 murders of Jesuits in El Salvador.

In the early hours of 16 November, 1989, an army battalion entered the campus of the Central American University in San Salvador, El Salvador and murdered eight people.

Six of them were academics and priests at this Roman Catholic University. 

The other two were a domestic employee of the University and her teenage daughter who she died trying to protect. 

The intended victims were the six priests, among them the founder of Liberation Psychology, Ignacio Martín Baró and the notable theologian Ignacio Ellacuría.

解放心理學  Liberation psychology or liberation social psychology

the psychology of oppressed and impoverished communities 

by conceptually and practically addressing 

the oppressive sociopolitical structure in which they exist.

The central concepts of liberation psychology include: 

conscientization; 

realismo-crítico; 

de-ideologized reality; 

a coherently social orientation; 

the preferential option for the oppressed majorities, 

and methodological eclecticism
