	Constructed language - Unipedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		An artificial or constructed language (known colloquially as a conlang among aficionados), is a language whose vocabulary and grammar are specifically devised by an individual or small group, rather than having naturally evolved as part of a culture as with natural languages.
		Constructed languages are often divided into a priori languages, in which much of the grammar and vocabulary is created from scratch (using the author's imagination or automatic computational means), and a posteriori languages, where the grammar and vocabulary are derived from one or more natural languages.
		A member of the Klingon Language Institute, d'Armond Speers, attempted to raise his son as a native (bilingual with English) Klingon speaker, but found that at that time the Klingon vocabulary was not quite large enough to express the large number of objects normally found in the home, such as "table" or "bottle".

		SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION: The world you inhabit is socially constructed.
		As a humanly constructed phenomenon, the world you inhabit is a product of history and adaptation and, thus, is a world of continual change.
		We maintain a degree of agency concerning our behaviors and the unfolding shape of the world, but agency, at least in the ability to shape the world, is not distributed equally in a stratified society such as ours.

		Simply defined, the lebensweld is the world of human experience, shaped in part by the socio-cultural context in which the human subject is situated, and guided in part by the subject's own volition.
		Both the received and constructed worlds contain human and natural elements; both contain the "real" and the "imagined" (though, to the subject, the imagined is very real); both contain the physical and the ideological.
		In the constructed world, on the other hand, the subject becomes an active agent, acting of its own volition, playing an active role in the development (i.e., the construction) of both the physical and structural aspects of reality.

		Conworld is a short term to constructed world.
		Thus, conworlding stands for world constructing, and is the art of creating entire fantasy worlds out of your fertile imagination.
		The ideal conworld is one with depth, consistency, and beauty, which is why Tolkien's Middle-earth is often held as the best example of a conworld that there is. But conworlds are usually as beautiful as they are difficult to make.

		The phenomena of compound worlds is a trope of both fiction and art, and happens to be a particularly postmodernist preoccupation.
		Trespassing across worlds is made possible by repeating the technique of putting a world in flux not at the scale of a single world, but at the scale of a compound world as a whole.
		Juxtaposing worlds throws their shared interface into sharp relief, which reinforces the boundaries and completeness of each world, just as the ritual of crossing national borders foregrounds the sovereign and unitary existence of each country.

	Hausarbeiten.de: Faulkner's A Rose for Emily: a constructed world revisited-a Lacanian critique - Hauptseminararbeit. ...
		This misconception is central to Miss Emily′s self-constructed world, and in technical terms she would certainly be defined as mad, with her madness developing in the years to a fully-fledged mental disturbance, leading to murder and co-habitation with the body of her dead friend.
		This construction of her own world by resorting to total introversion is typical of many of the Faulkner′s characters, who misconceive the reality of the new South and refuse to accept it in any way.
		Her world is a construction, it is entirely imaginary and therefore her ways are defined as `mad′ and `crazy′ by the community, as they express a denial of the community values and lifestyle.

	GENDER THEORY IN WORLD POLITICS: (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		If reality is socially constructed and material outcomes depend in large part on shared beliefs, certainly the ubiquity and salience of beliefs about sexual difference in areas relevant to IR are worthy of study.
		Because a purpose of this article is to develop a distinction between feminist theorizing as a normative project and “gender theory” as an explanatory lens, I will henceforth avoid using the term “feminist IR theory” as it is conventionally understood: that is, as being defined by the use of gender as a category of analysis.
		The argument that gender is socially constructed means that it varies (across cultures, times and between members of the same sex) rather than varying between the sexes, as biological determinism would dictate.

	ALLELON - Articles: Viewing Article
		The contemporary idea of social construction builds in part from the thesis presented by Peter Berger in the mid-1960s that rather than inhabiting a prefabricated, given world, humans live in a social-cultural world of their own creation, [1] a task to which society supplies the necessary cultural tools.
		Although the constructed world gives the semblance of being a given, universal and objective reality, it is actuallyâ“to use Morganâs pictureâ“âan unstable edifice that generations constantly labor to build, raze, rebuild, and redesign.â [9]
		At the heart of this ongoing, dynamic process are what sociologists call âsymbolsâ that transmit the shared meanings by means of which a people understand themselves, pinpoint their deepest aspirations and longings, and construct the world they inhabit.

	SRB Editorial 5(3)
		It is important to note that Wulf does point out that the world view and construction of time which most people hold in day to day consciousness is still the Ptolemaic view, precisely because the changes brought about are of such a drastic nature and not exactly amenable to the practicality of everyday life.
		However, if this construction is questioned and not taken as a given, the position of the queer must be re-examined and the productive, non-reproductive situation need not be undesirable or threatening at all.
		To experience queer time then, to construct queer time, is to self-construct the relation of the becoming-self to the constructed world and constructed time, rather than merely accept what is expected and imposed.

	A re-Constructed World - Arts - Entertainment - theage.com.au
		The title of the show is a clear reference to the work of the performance, video and installation artists known as A Constructed World, formed in the late 1980s by Geoff Lowe and Jacqui Riva.
		A Constructed World has, over the years, provocatively played with notions of naive rendering, where the mysteries of creating visual art are cast asunder.
		It is almost odd to see the works in an art gallery at all, but in their mad, haphazard crudity, their delightful play on form and clear lack of function, the works' dream-like worlds thrive and interact.
