Inhaltsangabe

Symbolic interactionism, resolutely empirical in practice, shares theoretical concerns with cultural studies and humanistic discourse. Recognizing that the humanities have engaged many of the important intellectual currents of the last twenty-five years in ways that sociology has not, the contributors to this volume fully acknowledge that the boundary between the social sciences and the humanities has begun to dissolve. This challenging volume explores that border area.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Howard S. Becker (1928-2023) made major contributions to the sociology of deviance, sociology of art, and sociology of music. He received a PhD from the University of Chicago, where he was also an instructor in sociology and social sciences. He was professor of sociology at Northwestern University for twenty-five years and later became a professor of sociology and an adjunct professor of music at the University of Washington. He lived and worked in San Francisco and Paris.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Tracing its lineage to the American Pragmatists--John Dewey and George Herbert Mead, particularly--and to sociologists of the 'Chicago School' and their successors, symbolic interaction has emerged as one of the major movements of contemporary social science.
