Walking Through Life. Sociology of Everyday Life
29.99 €
For a sociologist, everyday life begins even before they pick up a questionnaire or attend an interview. Sociology surrounds them at home and in their office, permeating their thinking and shaping their sociological imagination. Without it, it is impossible to conceptualize the general in unity with the particular. The way we think, how we walk, and what we buy embody cultural codes and social meanings through which and thanks to which society constructs itself as we see it today. Armchairs, sofas, blankets, piercings, and body paint express cultural norms that organize social space, defining distances, distances, and barriers within it. They both facilitate and hinder our communication, interaction, and socialization. For some, they cause trouble, for others, they are trivial, while still others express concern for others.
This book is intended for a wide range of specialists and non-specialists, for those who, seeking to broaden their horizons or further their studies, are interested in sociology, cultural studies, philosophy, and related disciplines.
