Abstract

Abstract This article proposes that social identities are best understood as a kind of affordance, a “social identity affordance.” Social identity affordances are possibilities for action and interaction between persons, within a social niche, based on perceived and self‐perceived social group identification. First, the view presented captures and articulates the basic structure of social identities. Second, it explains the multifaceted interplay of such an item in the social field, including not only the complexity of the interpersonal dimensions, but also the multiplicity of registers in which social identities vibrate (ethical, political, psychological, geographical, affective, epistemic). Third, by doing good on (i) and (ii), the view makes social identities intelligible, helping preclude reductive misinterpretations of social identities, either subjective‐only or public‐only. The view has robust descriptive and explanatory power in concrete social contexts and retains the openness of a historically bound type of formation whose specific meanings change over time.
社会认同提供观:一种社会认同理论
摘要本文认为,社会认同最好理解为一种功能支持,即“社会认同功能支持”。社会认同启示是指在一个社会利基中,基于感知到的和自我感知到的社会群体认同,人与人之间的行动和互动的可能性。首先,本文的观点抓住并阐明了社会身份的基本结构。其次,它解释了这样一个项目在社会领域的多方面相互作用,不仅包括人际维度的复杂性,还包括社会身份振动的多样性(伦理、政治、心理、地理、情感、认知)。第三,通过在(i)和(ii)上做得好,该观点使社会身份变得可理解,有助于排除对社会身份的简化性误解,无论是主观的还是公共的。这一观点在具体的社会背景下具有强大的描述性和解释力,并保留了历史约束类型的开放性,其特定含义随时间而变化。

期刊介绍: The Southern Journal of Philosophy has long provided a forum for the expression of philosophical ideas and welcome articles written from all philosophical perspectives, including both the analytic and continental traditions, as well as the history of philosophy. This commitment to philosophical pluralism is reflected in the long list of notable figures whose work has appeared in the journal, including Hans-Georg Gadamer, Hubert Dreyfus, George Santayana, Wilfrid Sellars, and Richard Sorabji.
