The function of the dynamic forces in the construction of meaning: cognitive interactions between academia and business in Mexico
Keywords:
function, dynamics, construction, meaningAbstract
This research examines a corpus about the generation and transmission of knowledge between universities and industry in Mexico. This article analyzes the interplay of three parameters of force dynamics [Talmy, 1988:54] in two different construals of the same reality. At the discourse level, force dynamics are displayed through the construction of mental spaces [Fauconnier, 1985, 1997].Downloads
