so basically, today "cognitive sciences" is just a catch all term for the loose, mostly cognitive psychology driven, study of cognition by various means. Rather than a specific union of different disciplines persuing a representationalist thesis.

Everyone beats up Cognitive Science over representation, a very slippery concept which IMHO was not central to the movement. I always felt the core belief was functionalism. Cog Sci died because people got tired of endlessly trying to refute Searle. Still, functionalism lives quietly on.
