Symbolic Interactionism as thought of by Herbert Blumer, is the process of interaction in the formation of meanings for individuals. Blumer was a devotee of George H. Mead, and was influenced by John Dewey. Dewey insisted that human beings are best understood in relation to their environment (Society for More Creative Speech, 1996). With this as his inspiration, Herbert Blumer outlined Symbolic Interactionism, a study of human group life and conduct.

Blumer was the first to expand on Mead's ideas and make it into a cohesive theory with specific methodological implications for study. Blumer emphasized how the self emerges from an interactive process of joint action (Denzin, 1992). Basically, how an individuals are constantly engaged in mindful action rather than focusing on relationships with themselves and others.
In his view, social institutions exist only as individuals interact; society is not a structure but rather a continuing process where agency and indeterminateness of action is emphasized (Collins, 1994).
