The Discursive Construction of Reality
摘要
The chapter discusses the challenges presented by a discursive turn or discursive ‘extension’ of the sociology of knowledge. It is argued that such an extension is both necessary and possible in order to ‘update’ sociology of knowledge’s research agenda. The aim is to provide conceptual tools for analysing the current situation of complex social relations of knowledge and knowing, and politics of knowledge and knowing, their structural features, actors, processes and effects.
