演題：”A Modular Account of Open and Closed Societies”
講演者：Laurence Fiddick博士(Lakehead University)
There is a long tradition in the social sciences of classifying societies into two broad categories. On the one hand, there are open class societies in which status is achieved; whereas, on the other, there are closed class societies, in which status is ascribed (Ostrander, 1982). Concomitant with this distinction between open and closed class societies , there is a wide range of correlated features such as differences in views of human nature, interest in the natural and social sciences, interest in biography and realistic portraiture, and sound historiography (Brown, 1988). Given that it is beliefs about social mobility, as opposed to real rates of social mobility, that appears to be most important in determining whether a society will be open or closed (Brown, 1988; cf. Lipset & Bendix, 1959), psychology would appear to play an important role in the way society is organized. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the psychological underpinnings of beliefs about social mobility, specifically changes in status, with reference to modern developments in the cognitive sciences.
