Against the Background of Social Reality: Defaults, Commonplaces, and the Sociology of the Unmarked: Routledge Studies in Social and Political Thought

Editat de Carmelo Lombardo, Lorenzo Sabetta
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 sep 2023
The first wide-ranging, organic analysis of the sociology of unmarkedness and taken-for-grantedness, this volume investigates the asymmetry between how we attend to the culturally emphasized features of social reality and ignore the culturally unmarked ones.

Concerned with the structures of cultural invisibility, unconscious rules of irrelevance, automatic frames of meaning, and collective attention patterns, it brings together scholarship spanning sociology, anthropology, and social psychology, to cover various aspects of humdrum, unglamorous, nondescript, nothing-to-write-at-home-about social phenomena, developing the key assumptions, underpinnings, and implications of this field of study.
As comprehensive analysis of unremarked features of our social existence, this book will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in social theory and the sociology of everyday life.

Recenzii

"Sociology suffers from an attention deficit disorder of sorts, focusing on .001% of human action that takes place against a background of the taken for granted which occupies the rest of our experience. Here, in this adventurous volume, Lombardo and Sabetta gather essays that collectively redirect our gaze to the vast unmarked world, bringing opportunity for fresh insight."
Peter Bearman, Columbia University
