This book builds on the activities realized during the VI International Seminar of Cultural Psychology realized in May 2023 in Salvador de Bahia (Brazil), particularly a workshop forming a dialogical and open space of theoretical and methodological innovations. More specifically, researchers addressed meaning making processes that enable re-signifying reality across categories—dynamically shifting from one domain to another—and beyond them—developing synthesis and forming new ways of understanding and approaching cultural phenomenon. In this perspective the cultural processes that are discussed concern practical encounters –with people from different ages in different settings, particularly (but not exclusively) in the context of intervention— and pragmatic issues (how to approach people). In a neoliberal society in which language is used in its literal sense over its virtual meaning, categories tend to be reinforced in every iteration and potentially lead to segregation and exclusion as they are rendered invisible through interdiction of speaking (taboo) or framing social encounters with monological logic.
In this book, the authors shed new light on categorization by re-signifying it in a dynamic fashion in relation to a variety of domains (gender, mental health, movement, aesthetics, poverty, are some examples).
This book furnishes theoretical, methodological and practical tools that enable re-thinking about the process of recategorization. It has the potential to inspire the reframing of theory, research, as well as practices in psychology and other disciplines.

About the Author
Dany Boulanger's profile is interdisciplinary but emphasises cultural psychology. He realized two postdoctoral projects in cultural psychology with Jaan Valsiner and Ana Cecilia Bastos in Denmark and Brazil. He is developing theoretical models based on an epistemology of movement that he is initiating. This entails going beyond Vygotsky, Bakhtin and Bronfenbrenner. He elaborates these models around the phenomena of intergenerationality, people’s development and learning across trajectories as well as the relationship between the school, the family and the community. He is also elaborating methodologies. He is doing action-research on intergenerationaity in community organizations in Canada (Quebec) and on child citizenship. He is a professor of special education in the Université of Quebec in Outaouais.

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
