Subjectivity within Cultural-Historical Approach: Theory, Methodology and Research (Perspectives in Cultural-Historical Research Book 5)

This book offers a theoretical and epistemological-methodological framework as an alternative approach to the instrumental-descriptive methodology that has prevailed in psychology. It discusses the differences between the proposed approach and other theoretical and methodological positions, such as discourse analysis, phenomenology, and hermeneutics. Further, it proposes addressing the demands of studying subjectivity from a cultural-historical standpoint.
The book mainly highlights case studies conducted in various countries and employing or departing from the theoretical, epistemological, and methodological proposals that guide it. The research discussed here introduces readers to new discussions on theoretical and methodological issues in subjectivity that have increasingly attracted interest.
