I am a social and cultural psychologist interested on the development and social context of knowledge, social representations, community and the social psychology of public spheres. My current research focuses on how different socio-cultural contexts shape the development and transformation of knowledge, and in particular, on how different systems of knowing meet and relate in contemporary public spheres.
I have a special interest on the genetic and historical methods developed by Piaget and Vygotsky to the study of mind and on the development of dialogical perspectives to the study of knowledge in context.
My overall project, present in my teaching, research and applied work, is firmly grounded on the idea of psychology as a societal and cultural science.
I direct the MSc in Social and Cultural Psychology and with an enthusiastic and dedicated group of PhD students and colleagues I run the LSE Social Representations Group.
