Structuration

Source: geralt
Few would dispute that social reality is produced by creative human agents operating in pre-existing structural contexts, but social theorists are divided over how structure and agency are related. John Parker contrasts the views of Bourdieu and Giddens, who uphold duality (identity), with those of the post-structuationists, Archer and Mouzelis, who defend dualism (non-identity).
