This volume is composed of extended versions of selected papers
presented at an international conference held in June 2011 at Opole
University-the seventh in a series of annual American and European
Values conferences organized by the Institute of Philosophy, Opole
University, Poland. The papers were written independently with no
prior guidelines other than the obvious need to address some aspect
of George Herbert Mead's work. While rooted in careful study of
Mead's original writings and transcribed lectures and the
historical context in which that work was carried out, these papers
have brought that work to bear on contemporary issues in
metaphysics, epistemology, cognitive science, and social and
political philosophy. There is good reason to classify Mead as one
of the original classical American pragmatists (along with Charles
Peirce, William James, and John Dewey) and consequently as a major
figure in American philosophy. Nevertheless his thought has been
marginalized for the most part, at least in academic philosophy. It
is our intention to help recuperate Mead's reputation among a
broader audience by providing a small corpus of significant
contemporary scholarship on some key aspects of his thought.
