Mead's Theory of the Self
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
George Herbert Mead argued the self is not present at birth but develops through social interaction, above all through language and play.
Show
A child who can take another person's point of view has acquired something no infant has.
Watch for
The self is an achievement of interaction, not an inborn possession.
