Certain ideas which are systematically interrelated and central to the work of George Herbert Mead—concepts such as reflective intelligence, universals, communities of discourse and international-mindedness—have been largely ignored or overlooked by many of his sociological interpreters. The present study explicates and discusses these ideas in an effort to establish: (1) that they are crucial to a fuller and more accurate understanding of what Mead had to impart; (2) that the whole of Mead's thought exhibits the characteristics of a potentially self-fulfilling prophecy, as understood in the context of the “paradox of prediction”; (3) and what pragmatic implications this broader interpretation of Mead has for the discipline of sociology
