In 1892, the University of Chicago was founded, including the world’s first

department of sociology. Assisting sociology in finding its academic niche was a

consistency between its political and practical themes and the atmosphere of

liberalism that prevailed in American society at that time. Sociology focused on

“social problems,” not theory. Emphasis on cognition was developed into a social

psychology (later known as symbolic interactionism) by Charles Horton Cooley,

and two University of Chicago scholars, George Herbert Mead and W.I. Thomas.

This brand of sociology had political implications. Sociologists were reformoriented

liberals, not radical revolutionaries or conservative cynics.

The American creed preached equal opportunity and the primacy of individual

rights over those of the group. Social psychologists studied the individual, the dyad,

and the small group. This drew attention away from the negative implications of

the macro-structures of stratification, wealth, and power, the focus of German

scholars such as Friedrich Engels, Max Weber, and Karl Marx.
