Since 1960s,Symbolic Interactionism (SI) has come to the forefront as an alternative sociological and social psychological perspective not only in American Sociology,but also in Sociology of the world. In the beginning,many scholars in the field drew fundamental ideas mainly and approvingly from Blumer's works,especially,from his 'three premises.' However 1970s and 1980s have brought many criticisms of the perspective. Therefore,SI needed to reconsider and re-develop its perspective and method in response to the criticisms. Among those criticisms,two of those have become common and popular as the labels characterizing both Blumer's SI and SI as a whole. That is,on the one hand,SI has been seen as one of the subjectivist theories,and on the other hand,it has been called micro-sociology by its very nature. In sum,there are four challenges facing Blumer's SI: i) theorizing the influences of social structures on self-interaction; ii) theorizing the influences of self-interaction on social structures;iii) theorizing the social structure itself; and iv) consideration of the 'approach from "the positions of the actors'" in relationship to the macro-sociological version of SI's perspective. The main purpose of this paper is to examine Blumer's SI and to show the way in which his perspective (and method) should be reconsidered.

The Chicago School of Symbolic Interactionism (one trend of the "Chicago Renaissance") represented by the works of Herbert Blumer, has been seen to be major alternative to functionalism and and social system theory in American Sociology. In addition, this approach also has been important in sociology as a critique of positivism. Furthermore, according to T. Shibutani, "it is too early for a final assessment of Blumer's work. That will have to wait until the twenty-first century, when future historians will be able to see what remains of current Sociology. It seems likely that many of his view will prevail." So far, We have done many reviewing about Blumer's Symbolic Interactionism. The results which could be gotten as the result are summarized in the following paper [Tsukasa Kuwabara, 2001,"Introduction to a sociological perspective of Symbolic Interactionism(3) (The Summary of a doctoral dissertation, Tohoku University), "KEIZAIGAKU-RONSHU- OF KAGOSHIMA UNIVERSITY (ISSN=0389-0104) :No.54, The Economic Society of Kagoshima University, pp.69-86]. In this article, we are trying to clarify theaspects which compose the reason why Blumer's Symbolic Interactionism is generally categorized as one trend of the "Chicago Renaissance".

The Chicago School of Symbolic Interactionism (one trend of the Chicago Renaissance) represented by the works of Herbert Blumer,has been seen to be major alternative to functionalism and social system theory in American sociology. In addition,this approach also has been important in sociology as a critique of positivism. According to Blumer,from the standpoint of Symbolic Interactionism,the human society has to be recognized as dynamic by nature. By the way,what's the human society in his theory? To summarize his theory about this,it can be said as follows. In dyadic model of the actor and the other,both these two persons take each other into account. Taking another person into account means perceiving,defining and judging the other person and his/her action through self interaction. The fact that each of the two persons is taking the other into account is notable. For, it means that each two persons are brought into a relation of subject to subject and necessarily have to do taking into account of taking into account. According to Blumer,this taking into account of taking into account intertwines the actions of both into what he calls the joint action which is grasped as constituting human society in his theory. Then,human society in his theory means the association of various joint actions. In this article,we try to clarify the reason why the human society (the association of various joint actions) has to be recognized as dynamic by nature in Blumer's theory. In particular,try to do this in close relation to his concept self interaction.98Pに欧文要旨有
