My research of late has been focused on the area of cognition and culture. Sociologists are notorious for avoiding explicit accounts of psychology or “human nature”. Yet all of our theories involve implicit models of both. My interests in culture, science, and knowledge are really pushing me toward addressing these shortcomings. While digging around I’ve come across a number of great resources. Here are just a few:

*The Institute of Cognition and Culture at Queen’s University, UK

*The Journal of Cognition and Culture : This is a link to the TOC of their forthcoming issue on “Psychological and Cognitive Foundations of Religiosity”

*Jonathan Haidt’s research on moral reasoning
