Shaun Gallagher presents a ground-breaking interdisciplinary
account of human action, bringing out its essentially social
dimension. He explores and synthesizes the different approaches of
action theory, social cognition, and critical social theory. He
shows that in order to understand human agency and the aspects of
mind that are associated with it, we need to grasp the crucial role
of context or circumstance in action, and the normative constraints
of social and cultural practices. He also investigates issues
concerning social cognition and embodied intersubjective
interaction, including direct social perception and the role of
narrative and communicative practices from an interdisciplinary
perspective. Gallagher thereby brings together embodied and
enactive approaches to action for the first time in this book and,
in developing an alternative to standard conceptions of
understanding others, he bridges social cognition and critical
social theory, drawing out the implications for recognition,
autonomy, and justice.
