Cooley, Charles Horton (1864-1929)

US sociologist. He pioneered the teaching of the new discipline of sociology and the practice of social psychology. In Human Nature and the Social Order (1902), he introduced the concept of ‘the looking-glass self’, the self as defined by social interaction, developing this in Social Organization (1909) and Social Process (1918), a Darwinian social analysis.

He was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He joined the University of Michigan faculty after earning a PhD in political economy, and had a 35-year career there.
