Abstract

CASTORINA, José Antonio. Gerad Duveen: a dialectical approach relating the theory of social representations and development psychorlogy. Psicol. educ. [online]. 2009, n.29, pp. 7-26. ISSN 1414-6975.

The present article's propose is to discuss the main theoretical elaboration of Gerard Duveen stablishing the interchange between the theory of social representations and developmental psychology. From Moscovici's work and other disciples, Duveen clearly punctuates that the symbolic production manifests itself in the interrelations between the subject, the other and the world-object, in a way that a social representation emerges from an action system and dialogic communication. Therefore, it places the relacional and dialetic character of social representations, opposing any dualism between individual and society.

Keywords : Gerard Duveen theoretical elaborations; theory of social representations; relations between social representations and developmental psychology.
