[Ailist] Base of social constructionism

[Parashu]

As social constructionism says, meaning is created through 
interaction/dialogue. But I am curious to know what shapes/directs the 
dialogue. Let's take a case of Cultural Adaptation. Migrants have to be 
adjusted in a different culture. Definitely, they have to create a new way 
of living life, make a new meaning. what can be the foundation of making 
meaning? While creating meaning, don't the migrants base on their own 
culture during the process of adaptation? I mean the migrants create a new 
reality in a new place on the foundation of their own culture no matter how 
big the gap between the two cultures.
Do you know if anyone has done research on this case? or if there are any 
article regarding this, it will be useful to me.
