Whenever the colored dogs got close enough to the fence to annoy the big white dog, he'd pull off a morsel of bread, hardly more than a crumb, and throw it out to the howling hordes. Then, enjoying his own bread, he'd sit back and disparagingly watch the other dogs fight over crumbs. —Author Unknown This fable about the big white dog on the porch reminds us of the significant role community and sociopolitical dynamics have in shaping behavior. Sociopolitical contexts, characterized by the dynamics of power and privilege, inclusion/exclusion, us/them, belonging/alienation, stratification and access to resources, reflect the larger sociopolitical system within which we are socialized and live our daily lives.

Yet, distance remains between psychology's acknowledgement of the importance of culture, and its consistent integration into psychological theory, research, and practice. Person-Environment-and-Culture-Emergence (PEaCE) Theory, an integrative, complex systems approach, is introduced to facilitate conceptualization of individual and collective wellness outcomes. It draws primarily upon cultural and community psychologies in the context of a broad humanistic orientation that holds the dignity, humanity, and interconnectedness of all persons of the world as its core value. The " Being-in-Culture-in-the-World " Transactional Field represents the infinite and complex interrelationships between multidimensional biopsychorelational (person), socioecological (environment), and cultural systems that are in ongoing and dynamic transaction. Positive (e.g., thriving, well-being) and negative (e.g., dysfunction, disease) wellness outcomes are conceptualized as emergent properties of the activity of the transactional field. PEaCE Theory is informed by a large and diverse body of conceptual and empirical literature, both within and outside of psychology (e.g., public health, cultural studies), that converge in their insistence on the critical role of culture and context for understanding human experience and improving the health of persons, relationships, communities, and nations. PEaCE Theory will require ongoing testing and refinement towards its aim of transdisciplinary and global relevance.
