Two Sides of the Same Coin: How Languaging Bridges the Nature/Culture Divide

Open peer commentary on the article “A Difference That Makes No Difference: Uncertainty in and of the Observer” by Andrey S. Druzhinin & Diego A. Ramírez. Abstract: An appeal to normativity in linguistic interaction provides a way to avoid positing a strict nature/culture divide. This approach appears more consistent with the bio-logical foundations of Maturana’s notion of languaging than with an appeal to the normative constraints of a cultural domain.
