Rezensionen

"This Handbook is a precious pearl in amidst the ever-increasing flow of empirical papers all claiming adherence to the Positioning Theory. Often these empirical studies do not go beyond locating the assumed positions in a societal or personal matrices, failing to analyze their dynamic interdependencies and transformations in time. This Handbook stands out among the multitude of uses of the Positioning Theory in its thorough analysis of the dynamic side of the positions as these generate change in the mind and society. The contributions in the Handbook innovate the theory and leads to new alleys for its use. The collective of authors in this Handbook is living up to their duty to revolutionize the social sciences not letting their discourses become shallow reflections of everyday language use, and they fully exercise their right for deep penetration into the intricacies of social and personal psychological phenomena in their search for general principles of psychology and sociology."
