Abstract

DALBOSCO, Cláudio Almir. Linguistic shaping of Self and pedagogical action. Psicol. USP [online]. 2007, vol.18, n.3, pp. 13-29. ISSN 1678-5177.

This article deals with some aspects of Mead's action theory related to his thesis on the linguistic-social shaping of the Self, by approaching the pedagogical unfoldings which result from it. The article also focuses on showing that the core of Mead's action theory  rests on the concept which sees the human being as an acting organism constituted socially through the capacity  of employing  meaningful gestures and symbols.

Keywords : Action theory; Gestures; Symbol; Self Psychology.
