social anti-individualism and the mental

This entry gives an overview of a powerful philosophical thesis holding that the concepts figuring in an individual's mental states are determined as to what they precisely mean not simply by what the individual believes or thinks she means by them but also by her linguistic community—that is, by the social environment. The entry distinguishes between two basic kinds of such mental anti-individualism and points out its implications for social sciences and, in particular, for one of them, psychology.
