Emiliana MANGONE, Social and Cultural Dynamics: Revisiting the Work of Pitirim A. Sorokin
European Journal of Social Sciences. 2018. Vol. 56. No. 2.
Given the growing dissatisfaction of international academic communities within the social and humanistic sciences, with their rigid and counter-productive self-referential practices of intra-disciplinary communication, the integrative and cross-disciplinary attempt by Mangone is eminently relevant. For sociologists elaborating on Pitirim Sorokin’s ideas, it may seem questionable that his vast intellectual heritage can serve as a proper foundation for promoting the arguably “new science” of Cultural Psychology. However, instead of using a single disciplinary perspective (sociology or cultural psychology), Mangone succeeds in persuading the reader to look at Sorokin from different angles—that of the dialogue between different disciplines as sociology and cultural psychology.

Health misinformation undermines public well-being, yet most research conceptualizes fact-checking as an external intervention targeting false messages only. This obscures the effects of counter-messages on initially truthful statements and diverts attention from fact-checking as a user-driven practice. This study advances misinformation research by examining fact-checking as a spontaneous, naturalistic user behavior, captured via indirect behavioral ...
