Litte teoretiskt Motstånd! på morgonkvisten

"...constructionism offers a bold invitation to transform social life, to build new futures. Transforming ourselves, our relationships or our culture need not await the intervention of some expert, a set of laws, public politics or the like. As we speak and write at this moment we participate in creating the future - for good or ill. If we long for change, we must also confront the challenge of generating new meanings, of becomming poetic activists. New patterns of social life are not secured simply by refusing or rejecting the meanings as given - for example, avoiding sexist or racist language. Rather, the strong invitation is for the emergence of new forms of language, ways of interpreting the world, patterns of representation. Invited are generative discourse, that is, ways of talking and writing (and otherwise representing) that simultaneously challenge existing traditions of understanding, and offer new possibilities for action."
