Dear Dr. Pinker,

I am writing to you requesting that you might place MACRO-SYMBOLIC INTERACTIONISM in the literature. Other than an article that was published and written by me. This field does not exist. I have enclosed material that would suggest that this “new” field be labeled and bring together the three fields that often appear in sociology and social psychology.

Conflict theory (Marx and Pareto) have both micro and macro explanations. In functionalism, Talcott Parsons is predominating and has both levels. Symbolic Interaction has only the micro level. However, numerous technologies and related now can bring us together. From Zoom to cable to cell phones an incredible amount of material may help form the cap that places and completes this symbol related area.

Why do I contact you? I am in my 80’s and I believe that I do not have much time left in life. Further, your talent and prestige can complete MACRO-SYMBOLIC INTERACTIONISM.

I have taught since 1966 and have hundreds of publications in low prestige (Google rank first quartile.) From my level in academia, I am at the bottom. You are not. My proposal is that you become the lead author and that a graduate student or related the second. I would like to be 3^rd or 4^th. Your article will get read by top journals and it will bring together all the building of a theory in need of completion. You will see that it is not a new area. It is an extension and completion. I have been thinking and writing in other areas, but this is my most favorite.

I have read two of your books and numerous articles. I write to you because you are at the peak and if you agree, you legitimize the field. Thank you very much. Please see enclosed material and joelsnell.com/
