La mente como retórica. Consideraciones sobre la constitución social del conocimiento cómun

Abstract

In this article we approach social psychology of knowledge from a discoursive point of view. This discoursive appoach allows us to treat subjectivity as a social process. At the same time, the idea of thought as a dialogical and rhetoric concept allows us to face some of the theoretical problems of social psychology of knowledge, that is, the existence of a variety of positions a person can have on a particular issue and the relational and dialogic characteristic of this. On the other hand, from this approach it is possible to recuperate the political legitimation of everyday thinking which constitutes one of the basis of the rhetoric argumentation.
