The papers in this volume introduce and elaborate upon the concept ofsociocultural situatedness, understood broadly as the way in which minds and cognitive processes are shaped, both individually and collectively, by their interaction with culturally contextualized structures and practices; and, furthermore, how these structures interact, contextually, with language and can become embodied in it.
