contents Social representations of globalisation and the functioning of the metasystem in social comparison contexts: evidence from two studies in Portugal Raquel Ribeiro Gabrielle Poeschl Política Globalização metassistema comparação social identidade social representações sociais Globalisation generates intense debate and contradictory positions, being a particularly relevant object of social representations (SR). This article attempts to better understand the SR of globalisation by analysing how the normative social metasystem controls, verifies and selects the material produced by the operative system in contexts of social comparison. Using a multi-method approach, we conducted two studies, with semi-structured interviews (N=30) and a free association questionnaire (N=100), in the Porto Metropolitan Area, Portugal. Results highlight how social comparison contexts trigger arguments in favour of group interests and reveal the existing power relations between groups. The importance of identifying the relations that guide thinking about social objects and the applicability of SR theory for understanding complex, controversial, sociopolitical objects are discussed. 2020 artículo científico 0104-6276 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32963398007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32963398007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32963398007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32963398007/32963398007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32963398007/movil 10.1590/1807-01912020261193 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=329 Opinião Pública application/pdf Universidade Estadual de Campinas Opinião Pública (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.26
