An Interdisciplinary
Theory of Activity
by Andy Blunden
In this volume, Andy
Blunden develops an original
analysis of Cultural Historical Activity Theory, the psychology
originating from Lev Vygotsky. Tracing the roots of this theory from
Goethe, Hegel, and Marx, the author draws out the
principles with which Vygotsky developed a theory of the mind
that
transcended the problems of the mind-body dualism.
Blunden
follows the efforts of later members of the Vygotsky
School
to resolve outstanding problems in Vygotsky's work. This
includes
a critical appropriation of Leontyev's Activity Theory. The outcome is
a concept of activity which transcends the division between individual
and social domains in human sciences.
