Reality Construction in Society

A foundational text in sociology and the philosophy of knowledge, 'Reality Construction in Society' by Burkart Holzner explores how social processes shape our understanding and perception of reality. Published in 1972 by Schenkman Publishing Company in Cambridge, MA, this influential work delves into the intricate mechanisms by which societies collectively build, maintain, and transform their shared realities and meaning systems. Holzner examines the sociological and epistemological implications of these constructions, offering profound insights into the nature of knowledge, social institutions, and individual experience within a societal framework. This crucial contribution to social constructionism and the sociology of knowledge remains highly relevant for scholars and students today. Paperback in good condition. Minor shelf wear and age toning to covers and spine commensurate with age. Binding remains sound and pages are generally clean with occasional light foxing or marginal notes, indicative of a well-read but well-cared-for academic text.
