I believe the difference is not really their politics‚ but mainly it is in their political culture. We can explain this as their beliefs in which give order and meaning to a political process system‚ pretty much is the manifestation of the psychological and subjective dimensions of politics.

Although Simmel is classically labelled as a sociologist‚ the depth and breadth of his interest such as philosophy‚ sociology‚ socio-psychology‚ aesthetics‚ cultural analysis‚ literature and art‚ just to name few‚ cannot simply be limited to any one discipline‚ and it is best to approach Simmel as a cultural philosopher.

While I do not believe that Mead fabricated her findings‚ I do believe that perhaps her role as a young‚ white‚ American‚ Anthropologist could have affected the data which she collected. I think it is also important to examine the time period in which Margaret was collecting her data. We need to be aware of what was going on in Margaret’s life at the time.

After doing some research‚ I became intrigued with Cooley’s theory of the Looking Glass Self‚ and how it effects our society. I understand his meaning behind his theory. He claims that in his childhood‚ he formed his identity through how he viewed himself through his father’s mind‚ as well as others. I believe his theory is very interesting‚ because I experience it myself at times. Charles the Person In 1864‚ Charles
