Top 30 Most cited authors

[Christophe]

Okay it's actually the Top 37 Most cited authors, but that would 've lessened the Headline Impact. Anywayz it's interesting to see that the Top 3 are PoMo frenchmen. We're still at Big Time Green if you ask me. Next comes Albert Bandura, who was a surprise for me in this list, but then I always liked this guy. He did a great deal for me in lessening my paranoia around psychologists with his common-sense reasoning. Very nice writing. And then all these other guys... but look for yourself.

What, no Ken Wilber?

[Balder]

Obviously those-who-cite haven't caught up with the frothy edge. But Steven may be helping to push him into that list, what with his many obligatory references to Wilber in his recent posts and blogs.

Oops how did this empty space happen? Can't make it go away. So then it'll stay.

Yes, I think you are right Bruce that "the people who cite" are people writing in some academic context, which are probably mostly orange to green. The Tipping Point is still ahead of us apparently.

cheers,

Basta

Remove Bandura, Said, Giddens, Latour, Beck, tajfel, Harvey, Glaser, Anderson, Hofstede, Lakoff from that list

and who are these elusive coming yellow, teal dudes?

I don´t see anyone of that sort actually nor what it is looking like to be of that range expect through the rather trivial speculations emitted by the basically corporation orange like Don Beck.

And Wilber is himself a greenie too in that case quoting a lot of greeniees if you call Habermas a greenie
Jean Gebser has hardly passed the poststructuralistic test successfully to be called an integralist in our present day criteria. No a word on gender, ethnocentric or phallocentric criticism, intertextuality or intersectionality, postmodern spiritualities, ect..
