Response: Dialogue with Sociohistorical Vygotskian Academia about a Sociocultural Approach

Eugene Matusov

University of Delaware, USA, ematusov{at}udel.edu

I argue that all four commentators belong to the cultural-historical paradigm that I described and discussed in my original article, based on their opposition to a sociocultural approach, and their focus on developmentalism, the hierarchy of values, and the value of monism, agreement, and oneness. I provide my replies to their charges against a sociocultural approach especially of relativism. Finally, I discuss new problematics of cultural contact with power asymmetry for the cultural-historical paradigm that I have noticed in the commentaries.

Key Words: cultural-historical approach • developmentalism • hierarchy of values • monism • ontological project • pragmatic postmodernism • sociocultural approach
