Abstract:

In this Review in June 1993 Anne Schneider and Helen Ingram argued that the social construction of target populations is an important political and policy phenomenon. Robert Lieberman criticizes Schneider and Ingram's “circular” conceptualization of public policy and social construction. He proposes a “historical-institutional” framework for understanding the role of group identities in political change. Lieberman analyzes the dual experience of African-Americans in the American welfare state as an example of political institutions and policy changes' affecting changing group constructions. Ingram and Schneider respond that their purpose is to understand how social constructions shape policy designs, which in turn affect citizen perceptions and participation, and argue that Lieberman's ideas of institutions and history yield no analytic improvement. They provide their own analysis of the case of welfare to illustrate the advantages for future research of their conception of policy targets.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article presents social construction as a research framework, rather than an explanatory theory in constructivism, to outline different research strategies. Varieties of constructivism thus far conceived in international relations prefer cleavages where scholars are regarded as thin/thick, conventional/critical, or mainstream/radical. In contrast, I introduce a new landscape of social construction to show unique mechanisms for socially constructing international politics. The new landscape varies on two dimensions. The first, source of socialization, asks whether scholars treat social context as fixed in discrete, observable forms or as fluid in indiscrete, shifting arrangements. The second dimension, focus of analysis, asks whether scholars primarily study social structures, social subjects, or some interaction of the two. The dimensions make visible a multitude of research strategies with implications for the stability of social processes and the potential for causal analysis. Moreover, within this landscape, the article focuses on four processes of social construction—aggregating, assembling, internalizing, and performing—as seen inductively through examining prominent constructivist projects. Disaggregating the many processes avoids the misuse of social construction as a catchall mechanism. Finally, the article applies the select processes to the social construction of international norms to better grasp the relative payoffs of constructivist IR scholarship for research and teaching.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the social constructionist literature, little has been said about what it means for social factors to cause X in such a way that X would count as causally socially constructed. In this paper, I argue that being caused by social factors – and thus being causally socially constructed – is best defined in terms of a contrastive counterfactual notion of causation. Unlike some plausible alternatives, this definition captures what is at stake in actual social constructionist debates. It makes transparent which factors the truth of a causal constructionist claim may depend on. By doing so, it sheds light on what the disagreements over whether X is causally socially constructed may turn on. It also helps us to see under which condition the claim that X is socially causally constructed is compatible with the claim that X is caused by biological factors.

Abstract:

The proliferation of hadith dissemination on Instagram, a popular social media platform, presents a compelling avenue for exploration. This phenomenon has engendered increasingly intricate and dynamic models and characteristics of hadith disseminators. However, this development has received inadequate attention in scholarly discourse, often being overlooked. This study not only addresses the shortcomings of previous research but also delves into the question of how hadith dissemination on Instagram can shape the models and characteristics of hadith disseminators to become more contextually relevant and adaptable. To address this inquiry, this study employs a qualitative descriptive approach to examine the models and characteristics of hadith disseminators prevalent in the #hadith hashtag on Instagram. The findings not only reveal that hadith dissemination on Instagram has transcended virtual-based communication and interaction patterns but also underscore the construction of a more contextual and dynamic model and characteristics of hadith dissemination. This study additionally emphasizes the value of interviewing Instagram users to gain a more comprehensive and reflective understanding of this phenomenon.

Abstract:

Introduction. The purpose of the paper is analysis of the humanity perception of material objects that are used as food, from the point of view of sociology, and analysis of material relations of entry-level (people and material objects recognized as the food), in which the social construction and impact of social engineering to limit the actions of people in public life. The novelty of the author’s approach is to allocate reverse the effects of nutrition on human behavior as a factor of social process.Methodology and sources. In this paper, for the analysis of social practices of nutrition as a social process used to conceptual design of “social construction” from the point of view of the sociology of things the sociology of knowledge and sociology of nutrition. The analysis of the authors’ works that address issues of social construction (Durkheim, Latour, Berger, Luckmann, Schütz, etc.).Results and discussion. According to the study author proposes a classification, according to which the social construction of power is divided into three types (levels). Nominative type is elementary awareness of the substances. Measurement type is further systematization of knowledge about food and the actions relating thereto (the distinction between substances on the basis of edibility, the establishment of various foundations products or their social attributes, defining the main ways of making food). Institutional type is determining in what form to carry out actions with the products and everything associated with them (the emergence of order meals and nutrition, the overcoming of primitive naturalism in power).The hypothesis is expressed and investigated that each level of the design is conditioned by the social and structural environment interaction of the actors.Conclusion. It is stated that in the modern system of nominative power, and measuring the types of institutional design are in a state of complex interdependence, since over time a system of knowledge, constructed by the forerunners, turned into a “cash knowledge” with the result that subsequent generations gradually ceased to distinguish between the complexity of multilevel social constructions of reality.Formulated thesis is that the analysis of the social construction of reality should help to better understand the social nature of food, in particular, to answer the question: how do food products are social constructions, as they are created by our consciousness under the influence of the existing “cash” system of knowledge as constructed, their properties (their tastes), which, as it turns out, are not so much biological, but also socio-cultural properties.

Abstract:

This article describes an exercise that explores how race categories and classifications are socially constructed scientifically. In an introductory sociology setting, students compare their perceptions of the size of minority populations with counts from the U.S. Census. In a series of debriefing sessions, students analyze both their perceptions and Census counts as social constructions of the moral phenomena we call race. In the process, students are introduced to Census data and the Census web site as well as to historical and theoretical literature on the social construction of race. Students are then asked to reflect critically about the scientific practices in which race is constructed as a social fact, and in particular, to consider their own roles in these practices as users and subjects of race categories. The larger goal is to help students to develop a critical sociological imagination that productively engages the analysis of race in contemporary society.

Abstract:

This paper aims to propose a framework that puts the stakeholders at the forefront of achieving sustainability in the social context. This research, thus, argues that the social sustainability outcomes in construction are best achieved by taking into account the satisfaction of the stakeholders. Based on sustainability and equity theories, a dynamic assessment model has been developed to evaluate the contributions of projects in a social context. Multiple stakeholders and their differing interests associated with the construction projects have been integrated using social network analysis. The mapping of the relationships between the project stakeholders, with respect to their relative stakes and seven social core functions, have been integrated into the assessment model. The findings of this research suggest that the degree of satisfying the needs of diverse stakeholders is highly significant in achieving social sustainability performance of projects. Using a case study from Saudi Arabia, the applicability and significance of the assessment model has been demonstrated. The application of the model provides the opportunity to identify any problems and to enhance the overall performance of projects in the social context. The functionality and efficacy of the model need to be further tested outside the Saudi Arabian region. The research is original in the sense that for the first time, a novel approach has been developed, putting the stakeholders at the forefront of achieving sustainability outcomes in construction projects

Abstract:

The aim of this article is to explore the intricate relations between objectivism, subjectivism, and constructionism. I explore the construction of social problems in everyday professional practice as a valuable source for addressing and reflecting on differences in perceptions of knowledge. Using data from a study of how Danish social workers perceive social problems, the article shows how social workers’ perceptions of social problems reveal a sociological sense of social problems that renders possible both ontological assumptions, as well as epistemological reflections on the objective, subjective, and social constructionist dimensions of social problems. The social workers are constructing a model of social problems and how they are reproduced, as well as epistemological reflections on the uncertainty of knowing the “reality” of social problems. Those constructions are not formulated strictly in line with scholarly approaches but rather stem from experiences of working with social problems. The article proposes that we can learn something from this in terms of reimagining social constructionism. I propose that social constructionists should cultivate a sociological sense of the practical perceptions and approaches to solve social problems in society.

Abstract:

Here we outline one variant of social constructionism — one that emphasizes social ontologies as constructed in ongoing co-ordination processes. We stress that these may be constructed in relations between written and spoken words, non-verbal actions, artefacts, and objects 'in nature'. Relational processes often construct persons and worlds in either/or relations, but 'both/and' is also possible. We explore some 'new' both/and possibilities in various areas of practice showing, for example, that research can be viewed as construction and that it does not have to strive to enact the standard view of science. Instead, it might construct inclusive, multilogical, and heterarchical relations, constructing 'power to' go on in new ways. While social constructionist arguments do not demand any particular methods or relations, we suggest that there are good reasons why approaches of the sort described might be of value, might be more ecological, in today's fast', postcolonial, multi-cultural worlds.

Abstract:

The paper is about the construction of a sustainable social security system in Poland which is an attempt to define the types of changes that are required for the improvement of this system at the beginning of the 21st century. Optimization of the system should be understood as economic equity and obligatory application of axioms of commonship and unification. In order to construct a valid social security system, it is necessary to define the following factors: a catalog of social risks, a method of benefit funding and parameters of the benefits to be paid. Any structurally and financially sustainable system must be designed so that all its elements are compatible both with social risks that are protected in the system and with the elements of the social security system. The paper presents the Polish social protection system together with the social security system, the risks that are protected in the social insurances and a concept of changes that should be made to optimize the social security system.
