MY REFLEXIVITY ON MEAD
I've read so much George Herbert Mead in the past two days that I think my ears are dripping with Meadian theory. Mead talks about the combination of social experience and activity as the decisive factor for how we choose our actions. According to him, we think about what we're going to do, do what we're going to do, then think about what we just did. Mead's theory rests heavily on the fact that we all possess the ability to reflect upon our actions and see if they fall in tune with societal norms, hence the idea of reflexivity.
So here's my reflexivity on Mead... I think Mead is one vain mofo! His theory of the "self" relies on recognizing and embracing the "I" and the "me." Yep... the dude talks too much about himself. I'm over it. Just give me a Pass on this cruddy paper.
