How do we, as human beings, come to understand ourselves and others
around us? This question could not be more timely or pertinent to
the issues facing humankind today. At the heart of many of our
world's most troubling political and social problems lies a
divergence, and sometimes a sharp contradiction, in perspectives
between nations and cultural groups. To find potential solutions to
these seemingly intractable divides, we must come to understand
what both facilitates and hinders a meaningful exchange of
fundamental ideas and beliefs between different cultural groups.
The discussions in this book aim to provide a better understanding
of how we come to know ourselves and others. Bringing together a
number of cutting edge researchers and practitioners in psychology
and related fields, this diverse collection of thirteen papers
draws on psychology, sociology, philosophy, linguistics,
communications, and anthropology to explore how human beings
effectively come to understand and interact with others. This
volume is organised in three main sections to explore some of the
key conceptual issues, discuss the cognitive processes involved in
intersubjectivity and interobjectivity, and examine human relations
at the level of collective processes. Understanding the Self and
Others will appeal to students and scholars of sociology,
developmental psychology, philosophy, communication studies,
anthropology, identity studies, social and cultural theory, and
linguistics.
