  text: 'Sociogenesis addresses a pervasive problem in psychology given by Cartesian
    dualism that assigns the mental an inner locus apart from material activity. Aligning
    ourselves to the ongoing critical discussions of interiorization in psychology,
    we explore the crucial notion of space by highlighting language as sociocultural
    and dialogical activity performed by other-oriented individuals. We discuss space
    in terms of the “language spacetime”, a symbolic, embodied formation of mutually
    positioned speaking and listening selves. This leads beyond the “inside-outside”
    container metaphor and allows for a reformulation of interiorization. Interiorization
    is conceptualized as a continuous series of different, though mutually related
    movements between self and other and self and self that lead to and are supported
    by specific formations in language activity: reversion, transposition, and decoupling.
    Along a short passage of a video-based interview, we trace the reversion of dialogical
    positions within the addressivity constellation of the two interlocutors, their
    interactive creation of a heterotopic spacetime, and the decoupling of one speaker''s
    psychological activity from the concrete here-and-now and the present other by
    moving and acting into this new sphere. Interiorization appears as a movement
    at the border of past, present, and possible future(s).'
