Talk:Charles Horton Cooley

Untitled
Cooley is one of the most influential sociologists! I can hardly believe there isn't more information about him. I'll work on updating this, but any help from someone who knows more about sociology would be greatly appreciated. --Zagsa 21:30, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

I pulled the recent addition of Cooley's development of Social Subjectivity from a text by Donald Levine, a forerunning authority in Sociology based out of the University of Chicago. A great read. I did highlight quotes from the text, however, the remainder is my own original work based off of research in the Levine text. --User:gqpolitico 09:26, 26 July 2006 University of Iowa

Institutionalist
Indeed very interisting. What is his relation to Institutionalists like Veblen?

Isn't all pictures of Cooley in the public domain by now?
About "No free image": isn't any picture of Cooley in the public domain by now since he died more than 70 years ago?

First sentence & birth date
"Ben Mann was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan in November 11th, 1986." - Is Ben Mann Cooley's initial name ? - Which is real birth year ?

edit war over recent edits
Can we please have more consensus about recent edits? It's getting a bit silly. Yes, the new material is a bit 'raw' and needs proper referencing, but that should not be sufficient reason to delete it all every other day, surely? The editor clearly needs some help in that area. Why not post all the new stuff here for folks to mull over and suggest refs for and say how to reference new stuff properly? Some of the new material is very interesting. It's not fair to just keep deleting it all. I am asure that is also very discouraging for a new editor who might get scared away by such behaviour. Can we please have a more peaceful and collaborative path to take? thank you Peter morrell 12:36, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

"obstetative elimination"
"Obstetative elimination" in the absence of a 19th century medical dictionary may be presumed to be the same as obstipation or severe constipation. In other words, he was an "anal" character or an obsessive neurotic. His philosophy may be compared with that of other budding sociologists, such as Baldwin and Ross, in "quest of community" and opposed to the Spencerian individualism, if not Social Darwinism of the latter 19th century, as well as, other social and political movements, such as Progressivism, Legal Realism, pragmatism, etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.241.26.8 (talk) 04:27, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

Philip Rieff
Cooley was hugely influential on Philip Rieff, to the point where Rieff should probably be listed under those influenced by him. I’d do it myself but I don’t quite get how all this stuff works. 2601:152:A01:9480:CD14:3070:38AE:24C (talk) 19:58, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
