The authoress argues that the essentialist and referential mode of thought stands in the way of important efforts to develop productive analyses of the functioning of language. From this point of departure, she proceeds to show that by rejecting essentialism a researcher can find a vantage point from which many problems of contemporary society can be better understood and described.
