The Dialogical Mind : Common Sense and Ethics PDF
by Ivana (University of Stirling) Markova
Description
Dialogue has become a central theoretical concept in human and social sciences as well as in professions such as education, health, and psychotherapy.
This 'dialogical turn' emphasises the importance of social relations and interaction to our behaviour and how we make sense of the world; hence the dialogical mind is the mind in interaction with others - with individuals, groups, institutions, and cultures in historical perspectives.
Through a combination of rigorous theoretical work and empirical investigation, Marková presents an ethics of dialogicality as an alternative to the narrow perspective of individualism and cognitivism that has traditionally dominated the field of social psychology.
The dialogical perspective, which focuses on interdependencies among the self and others, offers a powerful theoretical basis to comprehend, analyse, and discuss complex social issues.
Marková considers the implications of dialogical epistemology both in daily life and in professional practices involving problems of communication, care, and therapy.
