Abstract

[Extract] This volume grew out of a special issue of the International Journal for Dialogical Science (Bertau & Gonçalves, 2007). The journal addresses dialogical processes in human interaction from a psychological perspective, bringing together previously separate theoretical traditions about the 'self' and about 'dialogue' within the innovative framework of 'Dialogical Self Theory' (Hermans & Hermans-Konopka, 2010; Hermans & Gieser, 2012). The special issue was devoted to developmental questions, and so broaches one of the more difficult and challenging topics for models of pluralist self: the question of how the dynamics of multiplicity emerge and change over time. This volume continues that exploration by addressing both ontogenetic questions, directed at the emergence of the dialogical self in early infancy, and microgenetic questions, addressed to later developmental dynamics in adolescence and adulthood. In this volume the contributors also examine development and change in a range of culture-specific settings and practices, including the practices of mothering, of migration and cross-cultural assimilation, and of 'doing psychotherapy.'
