Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Casting identity as lived and negotiated, Scott extends a pragmatist orientation to symbolic interaction, dramaturgy, and ethnomethodology. Pertinent and interesting case material grounds theory in everyday circumstances, making for accessible reading. The book is highly recommended for courses on self and society and on social control." Jaber F. Gubrium, University of Missouri [and author of The Self We Live By] "Susie Scott has already established herself as one of our leading exponents of interactionist sociology. Here she has again assimilated and synthesised a impressive array of material in a scholarly overview of the sources and enactments of social identity. At a time when issues of identity are written about loosely in many quarters, we need Scott s careful, systematic and disciplined review. She clearly establishes the continuing relevance of symbolic interactionism for sociology today." Paul Atkinson, Cardiff University "With the lucidity we have come to expect, Susie Scott draws from her remarkable command of micro social theory to provide a profound exploration of social identity. Illuminating this through a glittering variety of real-world illustrations, she reveals the artistry, the fragility, and the poignancy of the everyday processes by which we negotiate who we are." Rob Stones, University of Western Sydney
