Subjectivity within Cultural-Historical Approach: Theory, Methodology and Research: 5 (Perspectives in Cultural-Historical Research)

by Fernando González Rey (Editor), Albertina Mitjans Martinez (Editor), Albertina Mitjáns Martínez (Editor), Daniel Magalhaes Goulart (Editor), Daniel Magalhães Goulart (Editor), Fernando Gonzalez Rey (Editor)

Synopsis

This book offers a theoretical and epistemological-methodological framework as an alternative approach to the instrumental-descriptive methodology that has prevailed in psychology to date. It discusses the differences between the proposed approach and other theoretical and methodological positions, such as discourse analysis, phenomenology and hermeneutics. Further, it puts forward a proposal that allows the demands of studying subjectivity to be addressed from a cultural-historical standpoint.
The book mainly highlights case studies that have been conducted in various countries, and which employ or depart from the theoretical, epistemological and methodological proposals that guide this book. The research discussed here introduces readers to new discussions on theoretical and methodological issues in subjectivity that have increasingly attracted interest.
