Process language
We are bound to ancient metaphysical conventions that privilege object-oriented language. Using ‘the’ definite article is a significant part of that style of thacting which I argue obscures much of what we want to understand about psychosocial processes. Such psychosocial processes need language that will engage with those processes: a verb-oriented language. This latter point I picked up from Norbert Elias. In an attempt to extend his project I have been developing a style of writing for some time that does not use ‘the’.
