This volume brings together leading scholars in the area of symbolic interactionism to offer a broad discussion of issues including identity, dialogue and legitimacy.
Sociologists and other scholars adept in symbolic interactionism explore a broad range of issues, among them identity, dialogue, and legitimacy. In sections on foundations, the interaction order, and new interpretive studies, they consider such topics as dialogues and drama in everyday life, the interaction order in the 21st century and the case of police legitimacy, Erving Goffman and the evolutionary ecological missing link, a white memoir of the American apartheid: lest we forget, accounting for Trump: the neutralization of claims of racism in the early stages of the 2016 presidential campaign, and the cultural production of a successful sport tradition: a case study of Icelandic team handball.
