Resumen de Emergence and Evolution of Social Constructionist Ideas: A Conversation with Sheila McNamee

Nelvia Victoria Lugo Agudelo, Ricardo Andrés Celis Pacheco, Sheila McNamee

• The interview first addresses the relationship between social construction, communication and systems theory, amplifying their commonalities and disagreements. Then, we trace the influence of postmodernism and the Chicago School in the rise of social construction, two of the many influences for social construction. Finally, we talk about two key concepts for social construction: generative dialogue and relational responsibility. We explore the future of social construction and its evolution to relational construction.
