Resumo(s)
A ideia de que certas categorias, propriedades, eventos, ou factos,
são construídos socialmente tem sido defendida nas ciências sociais
e humanidades desde meados do século xx. Nas últimas décadas, vários filósofos da tradição analítica começaram a dedicar mais atenção à possibilidade de que haja tipos de coisas construídas socialmente. A ideia complementa outra ideia relativamente consensual hoje em dia: a de que existem tipos naturais, mas que
nem tudo o que existe constitui um tipo natural. São particularmente interessantes os tipos de coisas que parecem naturais, mas
que se argumenta serem na realidade construídos socialmente. Nesta entrada, identifico o papel que as teses construtivistas têm no progresso social e político, distingo entre várias formas de
construtivismo teoricamente interessantes – causal e constitutivo, e discuto três objecções à ideia do construtivismo factual.
Abstract: The idea that certain categories, properties, events, or facts, are socially constructed has been defended in the social sciences and humanities since the 20th century. In the last decades, various phi - losophers of the analytic tradition have started to focus on the pos - sibility that there are kinds of things that are socially constructed. This complements another relatively consensual idea: that there are natural kinds , but that not everything is a natural kind. The kinds of things that seem natural, but are argued to be socially constructed, are particularly interesting. In this article, I identify the role that constructivist theses have had in social and political progress, I distinguish between various forms of theoretically interesting con - structivism – the causal and the constitutive kind, and I discuss three objections to the idea of factual social construction .
