Social Construction of Reality and constructionism: A misunderstanding which (perhaps) isn't one

Author(s): Ivana Spasić
Subject(s): Social Philosophy, Social Theory
Published by: Етнографски институт САНУ
Keywords: ocial construction of reality; constructionism; Peter Berger;, Thomas Luckmann

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses interpretive contention around the legacy of the Social Construction of Reality. On one hand, the book is regularly considered a founding work in the history of constructionism. On the other, Berger and Luckmann themselves vigorously opposed this view, claiming that constructionism had different theoretical origins and intentions, and was ideologically biased. The paper's conclusion is that their argument is only partially correct since their work and later constructionism share major lines of continuity, identified and analyzed in the closing sections.
