(S3,Ep22) Vygotsky essentialized?

from Vygotsky Podcast Hosted by Anthony Barra

Andy Blunden weighs in on a question I've been asking for a while: "What do you think the following passage means?" (Initially published January 25, 2021) Additional responses, via xmca listserv, are here: http://tiny.cc/3l27tz The passage in question: [A better understanding of child psychology is possible] "...only if we radically change our representation of child development and take into account that it is a complex dialectical process that is characterized by a complex periodicity, disproportion in the development of separate functions, metamorphoses or qualitative transformation of certain forms into others, a complex merging of the processes of evolution and involution, a complex crossing of external and internal factors, a complex process of overcoming difficulties and adapting" (Vygotsky 1997, Vol 4. pp. 98–99)
