本章阐述了图形世界理论(Holland，Lachicotte，Skinner，&Cain，1998)在探索学生和毕业生身份中的应用。它认为，在竞争激烈的毕业生劳动力市场给个人的自我意识和想要成为的人带来额外压力的背景下，《数字世界》为探索当代身份提供了一个新的视角。数字世界是一种社会文化理论，它试图创建一种分析和解释社会世界的模型，该模型涉及个人和集体如何回应他们的文化和物质环境。虽然这一理论在社会科学中已经使用了近20年，但它在高等教育研究人员中的影响有限。在他们的开创性著作《文化世界中的身份和代理》中，Holland等人。(1998)解决了一个中心悖论，即人类是背景的产物，但又是非凡的即兴创作的生产者。最主要的是，他们混合了巴赫蒂尼、布尔迪欧和维果茨基的观点，以论证一种社会视角，即将身份作为多个自我的对话表现，通过社会参与不断发展。我们认为，该理论融合了苏联哲学和社会心理学、美国经验人类学和法国社会学的传统，为分析当代语境中的个人主体性提供了一个宝贵的视角，在当代语境中，新自由主义思想似乎对社会、经济和个人心理产生了霸权影响。这种混合理论可以让我们停下来思考我们是如何理解和抵制社交世界的，在社交世界中，控制引擎以分散的方式存在。值得注意的是，霍兰德和她的合著者的一些作品最近正在重新出版，这表明它重新具有吸引力(Holland和Lave，2019年)。
This chapter illustrates the application of Figured Worlds theory (Holland, Lachicotte, Skinner, & Cain, 1998) in exploring student and graduate identities. It argues that Figured Worlds offers a novel lens to explore contemporary identity in a context in which a competitive graduate labour market puts added pressure on individuals’ sense of who they are and want to become. Figured Worlds is a sociocultural theory that seeks to create a model for analysis and interpretation of social worlds that engages with how individuals and collectives respond to their cultural and material circumstances. Although the theory has been used within the social sciences for nearly twenty years, it has had limited reach amongst researchers of higher education. In their seminal book, Identity and Agency in Cultural Worlds, Holland et al. (1998) address a central paradox that humans are products of context and yet producers of remarkable improvisation. Predominantly, they hybridise Bakhtinian, Bourdieusian and Vygotskian ideas to argue for a social perspective that frames identity as a dialogical performance of multiple selves, continually developed through social engagement. We argue that the theory’s blend of the traditions of Soviet philosophy and social psychology, American empirical anthropology and French sociology offers a valuable lens for analysis of individual subjectivities in contemporary contexts in which neoliberal ideas appear to have hegemonic influence over society, the economy as well as individual psychology. Such hybrid theory can serve to make us pause and reflect upon how we make sense of and resist social worlds, in which engines of control exist in dispersed ways. Notably some of Holland and her co-authors’ writing is being recently re-published, which is an indicator of its renewed appeal (Holland and Lave, 2019).
