Constructivism
Constructivism : A theory that challenges the belief that social structures are more or less natural phenomena. Constructivists argue that the social world is formed through constitutive linguistic and social practices, thus leaving open the possibility for societies to transform their social worlds. In this respect constructivism converges with critical theories such as feminism and Frankfurt School Critical Theory as well as some Marxist theories. However, some critical theorists believe that constructivism sometimes remains too dose to positivist methodologies
