Woops. I left out one comment, a response to something diane said, which I
think is an interesting challenge -- that AT leads logically to "radical
behaviourism" -- change the activity, force people to change the ways they
think.

Of course what disrupts that logic is that AT [in my own, Yrjo-influenced
understanding of it] presupposes community, different perspectives,
contradictions between goals and motives, constant negotiation of the
object, the nature of the activity, what it's for; looking 'up' and 'down'
levels of analysis -- across strata...
