Social Performance: Symbolic Action, Cultural Pragmatics, and Ritual Hardcover - 2006
by Jeffrey C. Alexander (Editor); Bernhard Giesen (Editor); Jason L. Mast (Editor)
First line
From its very beginnings, the social study of culture has been polarized between structuralist theories that treat meaning as a text and investigate the patterning that provides relative autonomy and pragmatist theories that treat meaning as emerging from the contingencies of individual and collective action - so-called practices - and that analyze cultural patterns as reflections of power and material interest.
