Abstract

Spanish Abstract: La realidad humana es tanto física como virtual; se construye interaccionalmente en un proceso dialéctico que comprende el entorno físico y social, la interiorización de ese entorno, y las representaciones simbólicas. Es una "realidad aumentada" que en parte nos rodea a modo de nicho ecológico, y en parte es también una proyección mental, en un proceso que podría definirse como una especie de alucinación colectiva consensuada. La estructura de la actividad cerebral tal como es descrita por Michael Gazzaniga puede tomarse como el correlato neurológico de la perspectiva proporcionada desde la psicología social por G. H. Mead y los interaccionistas simbólicos.

English Abstract: Human reality is both physical and virtual; it is built interactionally through a dialectic which comprises the physical and social environment, the interiorization of that environment, and symbolic representations. It is an "augmented reality" which partly surrounds us as an ecological niche and is also partly a mental projection, in a process which might be defined as a kind of consensual collective hallucination. Michael Gazzaniga's account of brain activity may be taken as usefully providing the neural correlates for the social psychological perspective proposed by G. H. Mead and the symbolic interactionists.
