Produktbeschreibung

In an increasingly interconnected world, a dialogical self isnot only possible but even necessary. People are closer togetherthan ever, yet they are confronted with apparent and sometimes eveninsurmountable differences. While there is a need of increased dialogue between individuals,groups, and cultures, it is equally important to develop ofdialogical potentials within the self of the individual person.Elaborating on these concerns, the authors present and discuss aDialogical Self Theory based on the assumption that the selffunctions as a society of mind. The self is not simplyparticipating in a "surrounding" society, but functionsitself as a mini-society, which is, at the same time, part of thesociety at large. The authors: * Present the theory in detail * Explore the developmental origins of the dialogical self * Elaborate on the identity development of adolescents growing upin multicultural societies * Discuss a striking example of a social movement in India, whereindividual and collective voices merge in a nationwideprotest. This is the 137th volume in this series. Its missionis to provide scientific and scholarly presentations on cuttingedge issues and concepts in child and adolescent development. Eachvolume focuses on a specific new direction or research topic and isedited by experts on that topic.
