The Cognitive Foundations of Classical Sociological Theory delves into the profound influence of understandings of mind and brain on the development of sociological theory. It identifies five key authors within the classical tradition and conducts a comprehensive examination of their works, seeking instances where they reflect on, engage with, and build upon topics related to cognition. By placing their work in dialogue with contemporary research, the book critically assesses the relevance, refutation, or revision of their ideas, shedding light on how these authors shaped the foundations of early sociological thought.
This insightful book reveals how conceptions of mind, brain, and body grounded the production of early sociological thought. It emphasizes the foundational role that theories of cognition played in the emergence of sociology as a distinct field of study. The book is organized into chapters covering key figures such as Comte, Marx, Weber, Durkheim, and Mead, each of whom contributed unique perspectives to the cognitive foundations of classical sociological theory.
Through its engaging and timely engagement with canonical social theory, The Cognitive Foundations of Classical Sociological Theory extends its application to contemporary social life. It appeals to scholars of sociology and psychology with interests in classical social theory, cognition, embodiment, and sociality, offering a fresh perspective on the enduring relevance of these intellectual traditions.
