People, it is getting lonely out here!
One question is, what does “intelligence in social action” and/or “social intelligence” mean today? Wikipedia, which seems like the right place to look for exactly this, brings up interpersonal intelligence in its definition. I think what Dewey and Neibuhr are talking about is more what it calls group intelligence, “a process by which large numbers of people simultaneously converge upon the same point(s) of knowledge.” The second question is, what did Dewey and Niebuhr mean by social intelligence? And, to connect the two, how does their conceptualization of social intelligence relate to whatever meaning it has today, with youtube, blogging, twitter and other new media that taken as the interactive tools of today’s group intelligence?
social intelligence is the late dewey’s term for scientific inquiry, as far as I can understand it. By tying it to liberalism, he’s making the claim, as is his wont, that applying the method of scientific inquiry to social problems will result in progress in the way we administer and solve those problems. It is not, I think, “the wisdom of crowds”–but it is something like Wikipedia. It would be great if we could do some concept work on this notion of “social intelligence”– I once spent a long time looking through the collected works for mentions of it, and it shows up principally in his essay on Liberalism. Combined with the debate with Lippman, I think there was some work there towards a concept of collective problem-solving that transcended individual power to do so. It lacks any sense of the importance of power, however. Nonetheless, it compares nicely with Hayek’s work along the same lines, which is similarly concerned with finding a kind of alternative conscience collective at work in politics…
