Abstract

It is common in studies regarding social representations to think of beliefs as a class of elements which exist in representational contents of the most diverse objects. This chapter will provide, in an abridged form, Moscovici’s conceptual ideas regarding the relationship between beliefs and representations. The next part presents two different theoretical perspectives that encompass that relationship. The conclusion suggests avenues to be explored in the context of the development of Social Representations Theory in Latin America.
