Dialogical self, Alterity, AffectionAbstract
In this theoretical paper we assume that human processes of meaning-making and knowledge are embodied and developed in interdependence with the Other(s) in order to approach personal identity as a dialogical space between the I and the Other (an I-position, a person, a group, a community, a society) dynamically regulated by affection. The dialogical inherence of psychological life is addressed, i.e., the role of otherness in the constitution of human subjectivity and particularly the affective and motivational dimensions of this process.
