The Actor-Reality Construction
Network for Actor-Reality Construction – XIV th Scientific International Conference
The purpose of the conference on Actor-Reality Construction is to exchange research ideas and contributions to gain deep insights into the problems and possibilities of constructing social human practices and to strengthen the output of research articles and books. We welcome submissions within any topics that provide insights into the methods and techniques for the construction of (dys-)functional practices.
Specifically, the XIVth conference maintains the focus on language game as the 2023 conference and will be interested in the role of different types of specialised language games (professionals, accounting, management, marketing, strategy, etc.) in the construction of (dys-)functional organisational practices. Language game means that human beings construct and organise in their everyday practices around the use of language as a set of narrations. Such narration is blended with other forms of action. The language constructions developed in local practices must integrate the four dimensions of reality to function pragmatically, in order to create intentional results of organisational activities. As an organisation runs by multiple interconnected specialised language games that have to function successfully together, the conference will also provide insights into methods by which cooperation among the specialised language games can be successfully created.
Additionally, we are curious about the role AI-languages and IT-systems are playing in the construction and management of specialised practices. In particular, we are interested in the distinctions between language game, language gaming and language play. Language play has a significant role in the construction of (dys- )functional organisational practices in emerging contexts. The relevance of this issue stems from the current economic, social and environmental crises and the related responses from organisations to construct new functional practices of resilience. Finally, the conference will focus on the role of research methodologies and meta-language games in the construction of organisational practices and the form (and deform) of reality constructions they create. A major concern is the soundness, ethics and the role of the emerging language games in creating or negating intelligent learning- and value-oriented and life-friendly organisational and institutional practices.
