Lesson - 40- Symbolic Interactionist Perspectives Part -A (Herbert Blumer, George Herbert Mead)

BA Sociology, Semester - I Module / Unit - Theoretical Perspectives Symbolic interactionism grew out of the American philosophical tradition of pragmatism in the late 19th century, especially as elaborated by William James, John Dewey, and Charles S. Peirce. The most important link between the pragmatic tradition and sociology was George Herbert Mead. One of his most famous books, Mind, Self, and Society (1934) is often taken as a charter for the symbolic interactionist approach. Along with Mead, two other important early sociologists who shaped the interactionist tradition were Charles Horton Cooley and William Isaac Thomas. The most influential contributor to the symbolic interactionist tradition was Herbert Blumer, who coined the term in 1937. Symbols are culturally derived social objects having shared meanings that are created and maintained in social interaction. Language and communication are symbols which provide the means by which reality is constructed. Reality is primarily a social product. The concepts of self, mind, society, culture emerges from and is dependent on interactions for its existence. #Social Sciences#emrc #sociology #definitions #emergence #understanding #factors #Scientific discipline#Auguste Comte#Kinsley Devis#Emiledurkhiem# Modernity#intellectual#political#industrial#semester#Fundamentals of Sociology#osmania university#sociology thinkers#digital#motivation#marriage#kinship#institution#
