Preferred term

social constructionism  

Definition

  • Social constructionism is, first of all, an account of knowledge-generating practices—both scientific and otherwise. At this level, constructionist theory offers an orientation toward knowledge making in the sciences, a standpoint at considerable variance with the empiricist tradition.
