CRISTIANO, Javier Luis. Agency, Structure, and Creativity: Three Analytical Models. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2018, vol.33, n.93, pp.119-150. ISSN 2007-8358.

Using the analytical models developed by F. Crespi, T. Parsons and E. Shils, and Margaret Archer, this article aims to perform a general, abstract review of the circumstances in which it is most probable that creative or innovative behavior will arise. In addition to using them to formulate a hypothesis about this, the author visualizes all the points the three models have in common making it possible to sketch a broader view. The main value of the analysis is heuristic, both in relation to continuity of theoretical development and the eventual orientation of empirical work.

Palavras-chave : system; morphogenesis; social action; creativity; structure; culture.
