Abstract
BECERRA, Gastón. El “constructivismo operativo” de Luhmann: Una caracterización relacional con el constructivismo de inspiración piagetiana y el constructivismo radical. Enfoques [online]. 2014, vol.26, n.2, pp.29-54. ISSN 1669-2721.
This paper aims to characterize the “operative constructivism” of Niklas Luhmann from a comparison with two other streams of epistemological constructivism: Piaget-inspired constructivism and radical constructivism. This comparison focuses on three topics: the characterization of the active role of the epistemic subject; the problem of the status of knowledge and its relation to reality; and the problem of the origin of conceptual meaning and the individual-society relationship. Based on these characterizations, it is evaluated in what respects the constructivist program of Luhmann diverges or converges with the other two schools of epistemological constructivism.
Keywords : Operative constructivism; Niklas Luhmann; Piaget’s constructivism; Radical constructivism.
