'Is you is or is you ain't my baby is in the Negro American English
dialect from the 1940's or so.
I've always been curious as to whether or what might be the non-joke
pun significance of dialect and dialectics.

thought, and
CB: On another list some said:
:All human activity, from the moment we wake until we sleep, is the
domain of inquiry ( of political economy)

CB: This is a somewhat interesting if side point ,no ? Political
economy is not concerned with the major fraction of human life which
is sleeping.
In American psychology I recall social psychology. It would seem tp
correspond to some extent to prioritizing the social in human
individual thought, but don't count on it in the bourgeois academy.
Also, national character studies in anthropology are a type of
cultural psychology.

All of which brings to mind something I saw at MR--which I do not
subscribe to, but do read the MRZINE occasionally.

In this issue we are reprinting C. Wright Mills’s “Psychology and
Social Science” from the October 1958 issue of Monthly Review. The
I believe Hegel's Phenomenology of the Spirit is a sort of psychology.
After some of Blunden's discussion, I've been thinking that Spirit
in Hegel is roughly culture in the modern anthropological sense -
custom, tradition, a certain People or nation's history. So, the

Consciousness is divided into three chapters: Sense-Certainty,
Perception, and Force and the Understanding.

Self-Consciousness contains a preliminary discussion of Life and

So, phenomenology is psychology. Sounds like quintessential
positivism- starting with the individual and trying to derive a
fundamental of humans. I see why Husserl is first cousin to the
existentialists like Heidegger. They all fall into the bourgeois error
of primacy of the individual.

While Pavlov might have denied his status as 'pscyhologist', Vygotsky
was considered an outsider to the psychological establishment of his
nation. He seems in terms of his reading (who he cites anyway) and
understandings rooted in the phenomenological traditions (Brentano and
after) which gave the
Vygotsky was invited to Moscow to take up a position at the Institute
and soon formed a research group (the ‘troika’) with two of Kornilov’s
young assistants, Alexander Luria, at the time an advocate of
psychoanalysis, and Alexei Leontyev.

And more on the physiologists--Vvedensky, Bekhterev and Pavlov,
including excerpts from Vygotsky's take on them (which brings me to
the conclusion that Vygotsky actually agrees some with Husserl on the
'crisis'). I think Pavlov had the largest impact on American
behaviourists (and remember it was
If you will recall--I think JF was referring to previous threads as
well--that we were discussing some of this under the 'Vienna Circle'
threads (which I cite in this post -- scroll down). All this puts me
to mind of Wittgenstein's interest in psychology, which was not simply
a late development in
