Conclusion.'Social construction' is a central metaphor in contemporary social science, yet it is used and understood in widely divergent and indeed conflicting ways by different thinkers. Most commonly, it is seen as radically opposed to realist social theory. Dave Elder-Vass argues that social scientists should be both realists and social constructionists and that coherent versions of these ways of thinking are entirely compatible with each other. This book seeks to transform prevailing understandings of the relationship between realism and constructionism. It offers a thorough ontological analysis of the phenomena of language, discourse, culture and knowledge, and shows how this justifies a realist version of social constructionism. In doing so, however, it also develops an analysis of these phenomena that is significant in its own right.Social constructionismSocial constructionism.302Elder-Vass Dave477771UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910462308703321Reality of social construction265183UNINA03609nam 2200673Ia 450 991096225050332120200520144314.097866117820859781281782083128178208497818464277011846427703(CKB)1000000000554466(EBL)350319(OCoLC)476168635(SSID)ssj0000106567(PQKBManifestationID)11122389(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000106567(PQKBWorkID)10109560(PQKB)10426384(Au-PeEL)EBL350319(CaPaEBR)ebr10251456(CaONFJC)MIL178208(OCoLC)437213820(MiAaPQ)EBC350319(Perlego)951571(EXLCZ)99100000000055446620080215d2008 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAsperger syndrome and employment adults speak out about Asperger syndrome /edited by Genevieve Edmonds and Luke Beardon1st ed.London ;Philadelphia Jessica Kingsley Publishers20081 online resource (180 p.)Adults speak out about Asperger syndrome seriesIncludes index.9781843106487 1843106485 FRONT COVER; Asperger Syndrome and Employment; Adults Speak Out about Asperger Syndrome; Contents; Preface to the Series; Introduction; 1.
