SOCIAL REPRESENTATIONS AND SOCIETIES
Abstract
Known as "knowledge of common sense", different from scientific knowledge, but of great importance to social life and, for that reason, worthy of attention and studies, social representations provide the elements that allow to understand the world, manage it and, until even, face it. It is within the theoretical reference of the theory of social representations, developed by the french theorist Serge Moscovici and other authors of the area, such as Denise Jodelet, Jean Claude Abric and others, who will be based and will build this article, which aims to run through bibliographical research on the Theory in vogue, given the importance of social representations in communications and social relations. It is concluded that, through the thorough analysis and interpretation of the social representations about certain objects, in view of the rich theoretical and methodological contribution of the theory, one can obtain an understanding and an in-depth explanation of the Social phenomena, view the functions of these social representations in the practices in society.
