Positioning Theory
One of the most exciting research developments in the last few decades has been the multidisciplinary ‘narrative’ turn in social research, involving linguists, psychologists, micro-sociologists, philosophers, anthropologists, political scientists, communications studies, and others. The works in this section reflect my involvement in developing ‘positioning theory’, which is integral to the narrative turn.
