The importance of communication in the production of social representations

The social representations are a commonplace in the literature in review but the concept in itself is not easy to be decoded. A borderline between psychology and sociology, the social representations are a psychological organization and a form of the particular conscience of the contemporary society, but not reduced to either of them. This position involves though their reporting to processes that are linked with a social dynamics and a physical dynamics, as well as to the elaboration of a complex theoretical system.
