Social representations as objects of knowledge: New horizons for Piagetian constructivism
Jean Piaget developed his constructivist theory from an epistemological and psychological perspective to understand the development of logical-mathematical knowledge. Aiming to extend the research program inherited from his thought, this work delineates the various types of objects in the social domain that have been investigated from this perspective in recent decades, with a focus on analyzing social representations as objects of knowledge. Bas…
Conflict and Change: Integrating Social and Developmental Psychology
Social and developmental psychology are often viewed as distinct subdisciplines, each with its own theories and methodologies. However, this book seeks to bridge that divide by proposing an integrative framework that considers various levels of analysis, from the individual to the societal. It emphasizes the interplay of fundamental concepts such as intra- and inter-group conflict and change across these levels. By revisiting and renewing foundat…

Civic engagement development in Argentinean adolescents: An autobiographical approach
Youth's distancing from traditional politics and their preference for new forms of civic participation has become an international issue in the last decades. Based on a sociocultural dialectical framework, this study analyzes the relations between acting, thinking, and feeling in the development of civic engagement as an expression of civic identity in the autobiographical narratives of Argentinean adolescents ( N = 23) aged between 15 and 18 who…
Social representations of citizenship among Argentine adolescents: Between civic engagement, rights and nationality
Citizenship as an object of study goes beyond the mere recognition of formal rights and responsibilities and includes cultural and social practices in different spheres. In this sense, the exercise of citizenship is linked to different forms of political participation. Recent studies show that young people are distanced from traditional political participation and prefer alternative civic practices. Within this framework, the present study aims t…
Controversias dialógicas y teatro documental en la enseñanza de conflictos históricos recientes
Based on the interest of analyzing the effects of dialogic teaching in the approach to conflictive pasts, this paper presents the quantitative results of a pretest-posttest didactic design study on the teaching of the Malvinas War in a group of 66 students from Buenos Aires, Argentina. For this purpose, we developed several dialogic activities based on the viewing of the film Theater of War and the reading of historiographic texts. A questionnair…
La sociogénesis de las representaciones sociales de la justicia en la prensa escrita argentina
Investigaciones realizadas en diferentes contextos socio-políticos muestran que los ciudadanos tienen poca confianza en las instituciones políticas (e.g. gobierno). Específicamente en Argentina, el poder judicial presenta el menor nivel de adhesión. En este contexto, el objetivo de este estudio consistió en comparar las representaciones sociales de la justicia cuya difusión es realizada por el diario de mayor circulación de la Ciudad Autónoma de …

Cognitive Polyphasia, Social Representations and Political Participation in Adolescents
Adolescents’ conceptions of wealth and societal fairness amid extreme inequality: An Argentine sample
This study examined how Argentine adolescents' judgments about the fairness of their society are related to their perceptions of actual and ideal societal wealth distribution, just world beliefs, and trust in political institutions. Six hundred ninety-nine Argentine adolescents from three age groups (12-14 years, 15-16 years, and 17-18 years) in high schools from diverse SES communities were presented with five images depicting more or less egali…

National identity in the historical narratives of a morally questionable historical process / Identidad nacional en las narrativas sobre un proceso histórico moralmente cuestionable
Different studies have shown that national groups construct a positive social identity through the appropriation of heroic narratives about the national past. Within this framework, this research studied the narratives of Argentine university students (n = 27), without specific training in history about a historical process in which their national state carried out morally questionable actions. Specifically, we analysed their narratives on the ‘C…
Dialectical inferences in the ontogenesis of social representations
This article deals with a possible collaboration between two disciplines: developmental psychology and the theory of Social Representations (SR). The latter takes the study of the ontogenesis of social representations as a central issue, even though the explanation of this process is still inadequate. The objective of this paper is to analyse the potential found in the category of dialectical inferences, as formulated by Piagetian psychology, to …
