| Description: |
This social interactionist text emphasizes in all aspects of everyday life the tension between social constraints and social transformation. This second edition greatly expands the discussion of the relationship between structure and agency and coverage of the role of human emotions. |
| Synopsis: |
Structure and Agency in Everyday Life outlines the major concepts of interactionism through its leading theoreticians, from William James to Erving Goffman, to contemporary writers. The text underscores the dynamic relationship between the structures or social forces of constraint and humans' ability to act self-reflexively and constitute meaning in their lives through everyday action. The major foci of interactionism-emotions, deviance, childhood socialization, gender, the negotiated order, and the self are covered in-depth. The text presents a history of the interactionist perspective. |
