The Social Character of the Unconscious. A Cross Reading between G. H. Mead and C. G. Jung Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-09-04 Lorenzo Bruni, Matteo Santarelli
The aim of this essay is to develop an original interpretative hypothesis concerning problematic aspects of Georege Herbert Mead's social theory of the Self in the light of Carl Gustav Jung's analytical psychology. First of all, we will try to unveil a link between the Meadian component of the Self defined I and the dimension of the unconscious. Discussion of this connection will open to the hypothesis

Commensal Attraction: Eating Together as a Social Tool Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-08-24 Nicklas Neuman
Social and human sciences have demonstrated again and again how commensality—the practice of eating together—has substantial implications, across time and place, for how social life is configured. Closely related phenomena have also been explored in biologically oriented sciences focused on human behavior. Yet, there is still little dialogue between these and the mainstream social science analysis

Meaning and the Commodity Form Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-08-16 Tad Skotnicki
Social scientists often treat the commodity form and commodity fetishism as concepts that reduce meaning to an economic base. The paper claims that this view is misguided and, furthermore, that these concepts enable us to formulate a dynamic approach to meaning in economic life. Building on recent discussions of commodity fetishism, I outline this dynamic approach to meaning and the commodity form

Description‐experience gap in choice under risk: Are emotions involved? Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-05-16 Gregory Gurevich
Choices made under risk appear to differ depending on whether the decision problem is presented as an explicit description or experienced by subjects through a series of choices and outcomes. The difference, labeled the description‐experience gap (DEG), has attracted a fair amount of attention and generated a substantial body of research. Alongside important insights gained, noticeably (and puzzlingly)

Can Complexity add anything to Critical Realism and the Morphogenetic Approach? Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-04-30 Margaret S. Archer
Complexity is not ‘the same as simply complicated’. This is because its advocates present it as a theoretical approach to explaining major aspects of the social order, usually at the macro level, whereas many social phenomena, at any level, can be full of complications (such as the incidence of road accidents) without a unifying theoretical key. Thus, the latter have a strong tendency to remain at

A sociology of existence for a late modern world. Basic assumptions and conceptual tools Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-15 Marita Flisbäck, Mattias Bengtsson
In the present article, we outline basic assumptions and conceptual tools for a sociology of existence. First, we address man's fundamental conditions of existence: that life's finitude and encounters with the uncertainty of existence are fundamental experiences that construct social relations. Second, we outline how existential meaning-making and the ability to cope with the unpredictability of life

Rules without regulation and regulation without rules Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-14 Giuseppe Lorini, Stefano Moroni
In everyday discourse, and also in the academic literature, the expressions “regulatory interventions” (i.e. interventions intended to regulate behaviours) and “normative interventions” (i.e. interventions which set norms/rules) are usually assumed to be synonymous. From this perspective, any regulatory intervention is also normative, and vice versa. This article investigates the relationship between

On the Uses of Phenomenology in Sociological Research: A Typology, some Criticisms and a Plea Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-14 Sebastian Raza
This paper aims to discern, clarify, criticise, and advocate some uses of phenomenology in sociological research. Phenomenology is increasingly evoked or implicitly employed in sociological endeavours. Little attention, however, is paid to what is entailed in taking a phenomenological approach, and whether it is employed to advance empirical or theoretical knowledge. I build an analytic typology of

Coincidence: A word with two meanings for explaining and predicting the future Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-01-25 Margaret S. Archer
Connecting the critical realist morphogenetic model to insights made by Nicholas Rescher, this paper argues that our predictions are always subject to chance and contingency but nevertheless ineluctably useful for both practical and scientific inquiry. Contingency results from the causal openness of the world, including the causal openness of our own decision-making. On the other hand, as Rescher notes

Calibrating the Conatus in Morphogenetic Régulation: Towards a Problématique of Perseverance Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-01-24 Karim Knio
The intersection between Critical realism, complex system thinking and Luhmannian autopoiesis has been subject to various debates. By showing how a complex system necessitates a trans-immanent philosophical foundation, Knio proposed in a previous article a problématique of calibration which seeks to bring back to the fore the importance of considering a complex causality generated by environments onto

Dialectical critical realism, complexity and the psychology of blame Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-01-06 Alan Norrie
This essay considers the question of how to frame social complexity from the point of view of critical realism as it was developed in the direction of dialectics by Roy Bhaskar. One of the main objectives of dialectical critical realism (DCR) was to see dialectics as offering a more open and flexible way of handling social reality. I begin by outlining the main aims of DCR and its general orientation

Plantness, Animalness, and Humanness: plant placement within animacy and adjacent scales Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-01-06 Frederick Curtis Lubbe, Kenny G. Castillo Alfonzo
Animacy is an important framework through which humans view and categorize the world, but many objects do not easily fit within this scale. Plants are unique because they are very familiar to humans, yet the features and traits relevant for placement within the animacy scale are generally poorly understood by the public. Animacy occurs at three levels, with the inherent attributes of the object (biology)

Complexity theory for complexity reduction? Revisiting the ontological and epistemological basis of complexity science with Critical Realism Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-01-03 Yi Yang
Complexity theory (CT) identifies our social system as a contingent and emergent product of non-linear interactions between existing patterns and events. However, CT scholars carrying out various empirical applications have often adopted constructivist positions that disallow the separate existence of social systems and agency, thereby preventing effective analysis of their interactions. Instead, with

Realism and Complexity Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2024-01-02 Douglas V. Porpora
I will argue that from a CR perspective, social reality is complex. It just is not complex in the ways CT suggests. Even emergence, according to CR, is more complex and stronger than CT suggests. First wave CR is enough to advance the issue considerably, but I will also examine dialectical CR as a further attempt within CR to take account of complexity.

Structure and agency between French and Morphogenetic Régulation Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-12-28 Karim Knio, Brandon Sommer
This article examines the gradual evolution of the French Régulation school (FR) for the study of capitalism through the lens of structure and agency. The analysis first segments the school into two epochs, the early Régulation, led by authors Aglietta and Lipietz, and the later Régulation, which saw the rise of Boyer. We find that the gradual progression that occurred within the FR school is linked

Social cognition and the origin of concepts in Durkheim's sociology of knowledge Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-12-21 Philip D. Walsh
This paper re-examines a key feature of Emile Durkheim's sociology of knowledge from a critical realist perspective. It is argued that Durkheim's attempt to establish a social basis for the categories in The Elementary Forms of Religious Life should be understood along ontological rather than epistemological lines. This brings to light new problems with the argument which, however, can be brought fruitfully

Borderline institution Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-22 Emmanuel Lazega
This paper introduces the concept of “borderline institution” to characterize an institution in which actors push upstream the boundary between the normal and the pathological and find downstream ways of systematically taking advantage of this push ex-post. This happens for example when actors make decisions based on predictions; and are simultaneously allowed by vertical concentration to manage conflicts

Do Realists Predict? Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-21 Douglas Porpora
As Petter Naess observes, some specifically prominent voices within CR have expressly denied our ability to predict much in the social domain while others express great caution about endorsing any such ability. In print, Naess has been the most prominent CR voice defending predictability, but there are others of us critical realists who share Naess's view. The purpose of this paper is to further defend

Imagine, predict or perform? Reclaiming the future in sociology beyond scientism and catastrophism Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-19 Andrea M. Maccarini
In this article I examine and criticize some mainstream views of the future within scholarly debates, mainly in social science. The goal is to review the strategies sociology is following to include the future as a theme of its own reflections. Such strategies also reveal relevant aspects of the society in which they are developed. The main argument revolves around some tensions concerning the relationship

Representing personal and common futures: Insights and new connections between the theory of social representations and the pragmatic sociology of engagements Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-19 Ross Wallace, Susana Batel
To understand social issues and practices such as those related to climate change and technological change that are clearly future-oriented – collectively experienced events that are “not yet” – and co-constructed by different actors, we need nuanced conceptualizations of how people think about, negotiate and co-create futures that allow us to understand not only what people (can) think and do about

The prediction of social catastrophes: Between necessity and contingency Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-19 Pierpaolo Donati
The article argues that social catastrophes are the product of networks of unsaturated social relations that lead to the exponential spread of a social evil (pandemic, poverty, desertification, etc.). In the exponential curve of catastrophe there is an inflection point where, if unsaturated social relations are saturated, the catastrophe can be halted and ultimately avoided. The inflection point can

Ontological unpredictability: what can realists say about unpredictability, contingency and catastrophe? Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-15 Ismael Al-Amoudi
This paper introduces the original research articles that constitute the present Forum issue on unpredictability, contingency and catastrophe. In doing so, it also identifies and discusses the specificity of realist approaches to the above questions. It is argued that attentiveness to the ontological dimension of (un)predictability opens promising avenues for reflexive approaches to social science

Everything, everywhere, but not all at once? Time, contingency and the open future Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-11-15 Jamie Morgan
The subject of this special forum is contingency and the openness of the future, and in this essay we take a route not often travelled in regard of these and focus first on philosophy of time. We contrast static and dynamic theory of time in order to (eventually) acquire some traction on the meaning of both contingency and the open future. We suggest critical realism presupposes dynamic theory and

Neither individualism nor anti-individualism: The coevolution of social systems and psychic systems Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-10-21 Jean-Sébastien Guy
Major paradigms in sociology and social sciences usually embrace either individualism or anti-individualism as fundamental worldview. This paper explores a third way between individualism and anti-individualism developed by German sociologist Niklas Luhmann in his systems theory. Luhmann treats actors or individuals as psychic systems and he distinguishes them from social systems. In a nutshell, social

Experience, Subjectivity, Selfhood: Beyond a Meadian Sociology of the Self Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-10-15 Dan Zahavi, Dominik Zelinsky
Sociologists tend to see G. H. Mead's conceptualization of self as fundamentally correct. In this paper, we develop a critique of Mead's notion of the self as constituted through social interactions. Our focus will be on Mead's categorial distinction between the socially constructed self and subjective experience, as well as on the tendency of post-Meadian sociologists to push Mead's position in ever

Who am I when I don't know who I am? The problem of personal identity in infants and elderly with cognitive disabilities Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-10-13 Marcos Alonso
This article addresses the problem of whether we can speak of personal identity in cases of infants or elderly with cognitive disabilities as hydrocephaly or dementia, lives that could be considered borderline in terms of personal identity because they lack certain characteristics normally considered indispensable for personal life. Taking as a reference recent discussions on personal identity, particularly

The nature of bank money, a case study of transformation in the Czech banking sector Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-10-06 Jan Jonáš
The article examines the nature of bank money on two complementary levels. The first level deals with theoretical considerations. Here, the departure point is Social Positioning Theory, which provides a framework to investigate the nature of money. Within the theory, the paper situates bank money in credit-debt relations, that are themselves integral part of a wider productive-consumptive nexus of

Autonomous Agency in Anti-Dualistic Social Ontologies: A Compatibilist Notion Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-10-03 Tero Piiroinen
Anti-dualistic social ontologies, those highlighting the intrinsic interdependency of agency and structure as two sides of the same coin, are sometimes criticized for failing to provide a satisfactory account of autonomous – capable and free – agency, or even denying the reality of such agency. This paper contests these claims, arguing that anti-dualistic ontologies only conflict with autonomous agency

The Failure of Roy Bhaskar's Explanatory Critique Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-09-07 William Hannegan
According to Roy Bhaskar, social science can derive values from social facts by a process called “explanatory critique.” Bhaskar offers two different versions of explanatory critique: a belief-based version and a need-based version. Both versions are faced with a difficult objection. They seem either to employ an invalid inference or to assume the values that they are attempting to derive. I argue

Relationship course theory: An interdisciplinary integrative proposition to address the complexification of interpersonal relationships Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-08-26 Carl Rodrigue
Researchers have been observing a complexification of interpersonal relationships in contemporary societies. However, current theoretical perspectives on relationships fall short of comprehensively grasping increasingly diverse and fluid relationship types (e.g., friends with benefits, polyamory, living-apart-together, coparenting, etc.) and patterns of change. In an attempt to meet the need for more

Social positioning theory and quantum mechanics Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-07-10 Tony Lawson
Social positioning theory, or an account of the human individual that it grounds, qualifies as a quantum social theory. This is an assessment that I explain and defend in the paper. It is of interest in that, in a world where increasing numbers are seeking to construct quantum social theories, it serves to help demonstrate that this goal can be achieved without giving up on meeting criteria like explanatory

The Concept of Function in Social Positioning Theory Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-06-15 Stephen Pratten
The term function currently features prominently in outlines of social positioning theory but a sustained account of the view of function informing social positioning theory has yet to be supplied.

The Minimal Model of Argumentation: Qualitative data analysis for epistemic speech, text and policy Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-05-08 Luke J. Buhagiar, Gordon Sammut
Social scientific work on argumentation is yet to address the perennial tension between social cognition and social constructionism. Moreover, argumentation-based qualitative analysis protocols are needed for interview and textual data. Nonetheless, argumentation models remain too complex to reflect everyday argumentation and are not necessarily reflective of underlying cognitive processes. This presents

Durkheim and realism Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-05-05 Hudson Meadwell
This article examines Durkheim's relationship to realism. I argue that there is enough prima facie evidence of realist commitments in his work that our task should be to consider what kind of realist Durkheim was. I discuss, first of all, Durkheim's epistemics and follow that analysis with a discussion of metaphysical realism in his texts. The first part of the paper covers a wide range of his work;

Homelessness, Public Space and Civil Disobedience Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-05-05 Simon Stevens

Firstly, I identify public space as a hostile space for people experiencing homelessness. Secondly, I detail how this reveals a default interpretation of them as anti-social through their mere presence. Thirdly, I explore how this de-politicises. I go onto define and examine

Pragmatic competence, autistic language use and the basic properties of human language Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-03-16 Tiaoyuan Mao
The unique linguistic profile of autistic people urges linguists to address the divergences in human language, its acquisition and use among major linguistic perspectives. Fitting with the dual roles of language (thought and communication), this paper adopts an internal pragmatic competence (IPC) and a (similar) pragmatic competence for external communication (PCEC) to elucidate how autistic linguistic

Sensory experiences and social representation – Embodied multimodality of common-sense thinking Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-03-15 Jari Martikainen, Inari Sakki
Discussions on the body frequently foreground in empirical studies of social representations. However, there is scarce theoretical literature within social representations theory focusing on embodied social representation. This paper aims to contribute to the understanding of embodied, sensory experiences as part of social representation. More precisely, it attempts to elaborate how individual, social

Constructing the Anti-Vaxxer: Discursive analysis of public deliberations on childhood vaccination Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-03-14 Jessica B. C. White, Kieran C. O'Doherty
Public deliberation is a form of dialogue that allows members of the public to provide input on a policy issue. Public deliberation processes invite participants to engage with each other respectfully, learn about the topic and each other's perspectives, and then work together toward solutions to an issue that are broadly acceptable. In this article, we develop a discursive psychological analysis of

It is argued that a movement-centered, Davidsonian picture of agency is not suitable for explaining certain social processes such as strikes

As field change is often explained by recourse to agentic efforts of a few or revolutionary turbulence of many, this paper provides a complementary explanation of change grounded in the quotidian dynamics of physical objects and settings. Using the culinary and mountaineering fields, we demonstrate how attending to the materiality of objects and settings offers analytical leverage into the ways fields

Framing the tendency to betray one's good intentions. Akrasia as a dialogical dynamic Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-02-06 Diego Romaioli
Akrasia, otherwise known as ‘weakness of will’, is a state of mind whereby people act deliberately against their better judgment. This paper aims to provide a conceptual framework for understanding akrasia from psychosocial perspectives that assume the self is multiple and strongly interconnected with the relational flow of which it is a part. Drawing on key ideas from Dialogical Self Theory, we analyze

Extinction society here means the characterization, both social and individual, of a highly developed reality, especially in terms of personal freedom, unable to face global collective threats, first of all the climate disaster. This involves the risk, within a few generations, of the extinction of both the type

Toward a sociological theory of social pain Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-01-24 Seth Abrutyn
A serious consideration of pain has largely been absent in sociology, especially physical pain's close neurobiological relative, social pain. Social pain is the process by which rejection and exclusion recruits similar neural circuits as physical pain, generating an affectual response that mirrors the response one feels from physical trauma. Pain is essential to any sociological analysis of motivation

Continuities Between Peircean Realism and Critical Realism: On Causation, Ontology, and Truth Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2023-01-07 Bridget Ritz
In recent years, critical realists have increasingly engaged with the thought of Charles S. Peirce (1839-1914), the founder of the American pragmatist tradition. But the engagement has been mostly narrow in focus and at times misinformed. This paper examines points of continuity between Peircean thought and critical realism with respect to causation, ontology, and truth. Its purpose is to lay the groundwork

Powerless, Stupefied, and Repressed Actors Cannot Challenge Climate Change: Real Helplessness as a Barrier Between Environmental Concern and Action Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2022-11-30 Ryan Gunderson
There is a gap between concern about environmental degradation such as climate change and effective action taken against the forces that drive degradation. This paper argues that real helplessness, a social condition producing powerless, stupefied, and repressed actors, is a fortified barrier between climate concern and effective climate action. Political-economic analysis has theoretical and methodological

This paper offers a theoretical analysis of Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and its claims regarding human autonomy. Self-determination theorists have advanced a form of self-regulated, engaged behavior (i.e., autonomy), founded upon on a consilient account of human motivation that assumes multiple, hierarchical levels of organization and causation (e.g., biological, psychological, and social).

This paper addresses the nexus between contingency, social engagement and change, through investigating the potential of severe (“disruptive”) contingency to bring about new forms of joint agency. By challenging Boltanski's notion of existential tests (which can only be experienced in isolation), the paper argues that social actors can experience disruptive contingent events in an inherently intersubjective

Towards a re-conceptualization of flow in social contexts Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (IF 1.4) Pub Date : 2022-09-19 Benedikt Hackert, Anna-Lena Lumma, Tim Raettig, Bettina Berger, Ulrich Weger
The antecedents and outcomes of individual-level flow are well documented in a large body of literature. However, flow does not only occur in isolation - quite to the contrary, recent evidence suggests that social interaction can facilitate the experience of flow. Therefore, we propose a taxonomy, which distinguishes five different flow states according to two global factors: interactional synchrony

The paper proposes an alternative approach to the ontology of social institutions by systematizing various normative institutional influences and identifying processes that distinguish between conforming and violating behaviour. The prevailing – cost-based model – suggests that an agent's conformity to a specific institutional rule can be represented by a single measure – cost. The model is limited
