Butt uses the terms light and dark to describe social construction. Dark side has more causal features, it is deterministic and mechanistic and there is no personal agency. Society constructs people in a deterministic fashion and these structures don’t give any regard to agency on part of the individuals. Light side is more normative in nature. People are influenced by their culture and they have agency to recognize and make changes. People are influenced by their environment and through their interactions with others, specifically through conversation there is meaning making.

Good answer. However, I would add an example to show contrast.
