Social Pysicology of facts, processes and projects. Object and time
Abstract
A dimension that must be considered, in the reflection that social sciences offer to society, is temporality. I would like to highlight the implicit idea of temporality within the different forms of psychosocial knowledge. In this article I propose that the different types of social psychology orientations can be situated on an axis of temporality which makes a distinction between those orientations that assume that the object of social knowledge is a fact (that is an object without temporality, being change a mere succession of independent facts), and those orientations that assume that their object is a process (that is an object in movement or perpetual change). Finally, I propose a potential social psychology of projects as an essential part of my own concept of what social psychology is.Keywords
