Analysing Society in a Global Context: Empirical Studies on Sociation Processes of Volunteers and Refugees: Europe in a Global Context

Autor Anne Sophie Krossa
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 iun 2021
This book is the empirical part of a broad research project on society in a global context, complementing the first, theoretical book, Theorizing Society in a Global Context. While the theoretical book set the framework for a long overdue readdressing of the sociological core-term society in a conflict-theoretical perspective, this second book substantiates its findings with theory-driven empirical analysis. Krossa investigates a variety of social exchanges between refugees and longer-term residents using various qualitative methods, and applies a lens of inclusion and exclusion via definitions of dirt and cleanliness, to analyse the ways in which conflict-prone activities to ‘integrate’ take place. Analysing Society in a Global Context will be of interest to students and scholars across sociology, cultural studies, migration studies, European studies, globalisation studies, modern history, and political science.

Caracteristici

Focuses on conflict as a major conceptual element in sociation under conditions of globalization Analyses symbolic boundaries and binaries at work in ‘integrating’ refugees, ie dirt vs. cleanliness, illness vs. health, trauma vs. integrity Avoids using the issue of forced migration to Europe as a pretext for an all-out critique of sociological epistemologies, but rather links back to, differentiates and develops profound approaches in sociological theory
