The term 'social psychology' was first established in the 1860s but
the issues surrounding the subject have evolved over a much longer
period. This book follows the history of the discipline over two
and a half centuries, demonstrating the links between early and
current thought. The first attempts at empirical approaches were
made in France during the Enlightenment whilst some modern ideas
were also being anticipated in Scotland. The search for laws of
mind and society began in nineteenth-century Europe and, by the end
of the century, it changed direction. Darwinian theory made a
powerful impact on the emerging discipline and the centre of
gravity began to move to America where it reached maturity during
the inter-war period. A History of Social Psychology is viewed
against a background of radical social and political changes and
includes sketches of the major figures involved in its rise.
