I really liked it too. I wonder what changes you might make to the list.
In some of the discussion of the tenets, I had questions or would like to
see more--e.g., in the discussion of externalization. More globally, the
list offers priniciples, but the unit of analysis issue that activity
theory foregrounds seems backgrounded here. I'm also interested in the
question of what gets developed in development (or produced in history),
another issue I don't see foregrounded in his list (though putting together
selves, institutions, and externalizations is a good start, it's harder to
see where practices fit in).
