author = {John W. Lannamann and Sheila McNamee},

year  = {2020},

date = {2020-01-01},

journal = {Journal of Family Therapy},

volume = {42},

pages = {328-346},

abstract = {Rather than assuming that psychological terms mirror natural categories inthe world and that the task of the helping professions is to find ways to discover,diagnose and treat these categories, our goal is to inquire about thestatus of the categories as an aid to then focusing on therapeutic responses.To that end, we unsettle trauma by exploring its social ontology as a disorderas well as its grammar. Feminist and cultural critiques of PTSD illustratethe limitations of the dominant discourse of trauma, moving trauma fromindividual pathology to social pathology. We offer two illustrations from thefamily therapy literature that draw upon polyphony, inner dialogues andthe creation of new narratives to expand beyond the pathologising potentialsof the discourse of trauma.},

title = {(Mis)Constructing Social Construction: Answering the Critiques},

author = {Diego Romaioli and Sheila McNamee},

year  = {2020},

date = {2020-01-01},

journal = {Theory & Psychology},

pages = {1-20},

abstract = {This article aims to review the main criticisms of social construction (SC) after its formalization as a “movement” in the social sciences. The critiques are organized into six dominant areas that define the relationship between SC and reality, truth, language, human nature, scientific enterprise, and society. For each one of these categories, the more frequent objections raised over time by scholars will be outlined and counterarguments will be offered, centering on common misunderstandings of SC. We show how the major difficulty in embracing SC principles is attributable to the use of incommensurate assumptions and misunderstandings of the aim of social construction.},
