Cooleys thought, bringing together scholars from the US, Europe and Australia to reflect on Cooleys theory and legacy. Offering an up-to-date analysis of Cooleys reception in the history of the social sciences, an examination of epistemological and methodological advances on his work, critical assessments and novel articulations of his major ideas, and a consideration of new directions in scholarship that draws on Cooleys thought, Updating Charles H.
