ANGELCOS GUTIERREZ, Nicolás  e  SEMBLER REYES, Camilo. Reflexivity, identity and recognition in contemporary critical sociology. Andamios [online]. 2020, vol.17, n.44, pp.39-60.  Epub 27-Set-2021. ISSN 2594-1917.  https://doi.org/10.29092/uacm.v17i44.789.

The article highlights the importance of the concept of reflexivity for the development of contemporary critical sociology. Our argument is based on the hypothesis that the category of recognition is key for establishing the linkage between the concept of identity and the processes of social transformation. This, in turn, allows for a better understanding of social change. To develop this hypothesis, we first reconstruct part of the French-British debate on the possibilities and limits of Pierre Bourdieu’s critical sociological approach to the problem of reflexivity. Second, we built on Axel Honneth’s criticism of Bourdieu’s approach, and identify the main components of his Theory of Recognition.
