Mean and the Symbolic Interactionism Theory: Addressing Society through Significant Language.
This paper explores Mead's perception on the development of language as a means of promoting significant social interactions. This paper applies these theories to the development of Mead's symbolic interactionist thought, where he believes that language is used as a method of conveying social standards. Through doing so, it is shown that Mead's primary belief in the theory of "mind, self, and society" is that all three of these factors are interrelated. 12 pgs. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
