Beskrivning
This book explores the fertility and enigma of Erving Goffman’s sociological reasoning and its capacity to shed fresh light on the fundamental features of human sociality. Thematically arranged, it brings together the work of leading scholars of Goffman’s work to explore the concepts and themes that define Goffman’s analytical preoccupations, examining the ways these ideas have shaped significant fields of study and situating Goffman’s sociology in comparison to some eminent thinkers often linked with his name. Through a series of chapters informed by the same inventive and imaginative spirit characteristic of Goffman’s sociology, the book presents fresh perspectives on his contribution to the field and reveals the value of his thought for a variety of disciplines now increasingly aware of the importance of Goffman’s sociology to a range of social phenomena. A fresh perspective on the legacy of one of sociology’s most important figures, The Routledge International Handbook of Goffman Studies will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in interactionist and micro-sociological perspectives.

Recensioner i media

'Jacobsen and Smith’s International Handbook of Goffman Studies undoubtedly constitutes a new milestone in the recognition of Goffman’s work. Anyone who studies this work in depth needs to know and work with this book. Its thorough reading promises a wealth of impulses for the further exploration of Goffman’s work, which will hopefully continue to be an arena where different theoretical positions and controversial views of his publications can meet.' - Karl Lenz, Symbolic Interaction
