Review of the construct the Identidy in the Cultural Psychology
Abstract
This study takes a fresh look at identity constructs as viewed from the perspective of the historicistic and socioconstructivist schools of thought within the field of social and cultural psychology. It analyses contents that exert a decisive influence over the formation of identity, such as the determinants of individuation, the organization of meaning, symbolic measurements of experiences, intersubjectivity and the possible cultural frontiers of identity.
The document is an outcome of the exchange of academic ideas and views that took place during the Seminar on Cultural Psychology offered by the first-named author as part of the University of Chile’s doctoral programme in psychology in the first semester of 2005.
