Introduction to Social Constructionismis a readable and critical account of social constructionism for students new to the field. Focusing on the challenge to psychology that social constructionism poses, Viven Burr examines the notion of 'personality' to illustrate the rejection of essentialism by social constructionists. This questions psychology's traditional understanding of the person. She then shows how the study of language can be used as a focus for our understanding of human behaviour and experience. This is continued by examining 'discourses' and their role in constructing social phenomena, and the relationship between discourse and power. However, the problems associated with these analyses are also clearly outlined. Many people believe that one of the aims of social science should be to bring about social change. Viven Burr analyses what possibilities there might be for change in social constructionist accounts. She also addresses what social constructionism means in practice to research in the social sciences, and includes some guidelines on undertaking discourse analysis. Introduction to Social Constructionismis an invaluable and clear guide for all perplexed students who want to begin to understand this difficult area.… (plus d'informations)

This book is for studentes. As a lecturer teaching social psychology to Behavioural Sciences undergraduates, I have in recent years attempted to include in my teaching something of what I shall call the social constructionista movement within social psychology. This has proved to be a difficult task, partly because of the inherent difficulty of the subject matter, but also because of the dearth of reading material appropiate to the needs of students coming to social constructionist ideas for the first time.
