Abstract

A social representations approach offers an empirical utility for addressing myriad social concerns such as social order, ecological sustainability, national identity, racism, religious communities, the public understanding of science, health and social marketing. The core aspects of social representations theory have been debated over many years and some still remain widely misunderstood. This Handbook provides an overview of these core aspects and brings together theoretical strands and developments in the theory, some of which have become pillars in the social sciences in their own right. Academics and students in the social sciences working with concepts and methods such as social identity, discursive psychology, positioning theory, semiotics, attitudes, risk perception and social values will find this an invaluable resource

Abstract

"Creating a stimulating social theory with long-lasting influence for generations of scholars is driven by multiple interacting factors. The fortune of a theory is determined not only by the author's creative mind but also by the ways in which principal concepts are understood and interpreted. The proper understanding of a social theory requires a good grasp of major historical, political, and cultural challenges that contribute to its making. Considering these issues, Markova explores Serge Moscovici's theory of social representations and communication as a case study in the making of a dialogical social theory. She analyses both the undeveloped features and the forward-moving, inspirational highlights of the theory and presents them as a resource for linking issues and problems from diverse domains and disciplines. This dialogical approach has the potential to advance the dyad Self-Other as an irreducible intellectual, ethical, and aesthetic unit in epistemologies of the human and social sciences."--

Abstract

Socially situated thought and behaviour are pervasive and vitally important in human society. The social brain has become a focus of study for researchers in the neurosciences, psychology, biology and other areas of behavioural science, and it is becoming increasingly clear that social behaviour is heavily dependent on shared representations. Any social activity, from a simple conversation to a well-drilled military exercise to an exquisitely perfected dance routine, involves information sharing between the brains of those involved. This volume comprises a collection of cutting-edge essays centred on the idea of shared representations, broadly defined. Featuring contributions from established world leaders in their fields and written in a simultaneously accessible and detailed style, this is an invaluable resource for established researchers and those who are new to the field.

Abstract

Le vieillissement de la population est devenu une vive préoccupation des États modernes, couramment énoncée en termes de «problème majeur» auquel sont confrontées nos sociétés contemporaines. À une autre échelle, une multitude de discours médico-sanitaires incitent la population à «prévenir le vieillissement individuel», à le «réussir», telle une nouvelle injonction morale, comme si vieillir se réduisait inéluctablement à une perte d'autonomie, de rôle et à une «diminution de soi». À distance de ce type de perspective alarmiste, cet ouvrage rassemble une variété d'études issues pour la plupart de recherches de terrain dans le champ de la sociologie et de l anthropologie de la vieillesse. Il propose un éclairage tant des représentations culturelles de cet âge de la vie que des catégorisations institutionnelles qui en sont faites. Il se penche sur la diversité des pratiques et des expériences liées à l avancée en âge (formation, retraite, veuvage, entraide, hébergement en maison de retraite, grand-parentalité) en interrogeant les processus sociétaux et individuels par lesquels se construit le «vieillissement». Cet ouvrage invite le lecteur à «penser les vieillesses» dans la multitude de leurs formes et la diversité des parcours de vie afin de mieux cerner les enjeux sociétaux réels de l'allongement de la vie. Il s'adresse aux chercheurs, aux enseignants et étudiants en sciences sociales, aux professionnels du champ de la santé et de la vieillesse ainsi qu à tout citoyen intéressé par l'analyse des modalités du vieillir et des significations données à cet âge de la vie.

Abstract

In this work, John Bolender proposes a new explanation for the forms of social relations. He argues that the core of social-relational cognition exhibits beauty - in the physicist's sense of the word, associated with symmetry.

Abstract

"Western or Eastern, ancient or modern, religious or scientific, myths are strikingly underestimated forces in contemporary society. In our rational, enlightened and supposedly civilized society myths have come to be perceived as the exclusive attribute of so-called pre-modern societies. In Social Myths and Collective Imaginaries, Gérard Bouchard conceptualizes myths as vessels of sacred values that transcend the division between primitive and modern. These vessels become so influential as to make an indelible impression on people's minds. We may no longer speak of Aphrodite or Gilgamesh but freedom, equality, social justice, environmentalism, democracy and nationalism are sacred values in our world. Nobody would deny that equality for all citizens in France, the right to property in the United States, or racial equality in South Africa are sacrosanct. Bouchard's refreshing and startling analysis reveals that as a sociological mechanism, myths have the power to bring societies together as well as tear them apart. In his own way, Bouchard awakens us to the transcendent power of myth that affects our daily lives, frequently unbeknownst to us."--

Abstract

Peut-on substituer l'image au discours et conserver une démarche scientifique ? Dans ce livre, une équipe interdisciplinaire, réunissant des chercheurs belges et québécois, explore cette question à travers l'outil « carte mentale ». Rarement utilisé en science politique, cet instrument de collecte de l'information permet d'accéder à des données originales, spontanées et libres à propos d'une multitude d'objets, allant du cyberespace au fédéralisme, en passant par des politiques publiques et des sujets sensibles tels que les génocides. En mettant en évidence les différentes acceptions et les diverses formes de la carte mentale et en soulignant les forces mais également les limites de cet outil, l'objectif de cet ouvrage est d'identifier les potentialités que recouvre cet instrument de collecte de l'information pour la science politique et les sciences sociales en général.
