What does social construction really mean?

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cuck Twitter: https://twitter.com/PhilosophyCuck Recommended reading: “The Social Construction of What?” by Ian Hacking, particularly chapter 1 for an introduction - https://larvalsubjects.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/hacking-the-social-construction-of-what2.pdf “Social Construction” by A. Sveinsdóttir, in Philosophy Compass Volume 10 Issue 12 (I have a physical copy of this but cannot find it online, if anyone does please let me know) I quoted The Social Construction of Reality at pages 13 and 15 - http://perflensburg.se/Berger%20social-construction-of-reality.pdf Note on the categories at 8:33: Ian Hacking also lists one attitude he calls “unmasking” that sits at the same level as “reformist”. I didn’t include this for the sake of brevity. This is when it is shown how something is contingent in order to undermine its authority, when showing that it’s contingent is good enough in itself. Reformist attitudes can also be unmasking, and vice versa, but they do not have to be.
