Quantum Mind and Social Science: Unifying Physical and Social Ontology
Alexander Wendt
There is an underlying assumption in the social sciences that consciousness and social life are ultimately classical physical-material phenomena. This book challenges this assumption by proposing that consciousness is, in fact, a macroscopic quantum-mechanical phenomenon. Part I of the book justifies the insertion of quantum theory into social-scientific debates and introduces social scientists to quantum theory and the philosophical controversy about its interpretation. The book defends the quantum-consciousness hypothesis against the orthodox, classical approach to the mind-body problem. Part II of the book then develops the implications of this metaphysical perspective for the nature of language and the agent-structure debate in social ontology.
