Miller, Frank Kessel Wiley, 1995 M04 4 - 126 páginas How can the concepts of culture and context be incorporated into acounts of development and research on development?

To illustrate use of the concept, four of the chapters describe specific research studies, drawn from anthropology, psychology, and sociology. these are framed by a general introduction to the conept of cultural practices and a commentary on its connection to toher concepts, such as activity and activity systems. This is the 67th issue of the journal series "New Directions for Child Development." For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Peirodicals page. |
