Studies in Symbolic Interaction<br />

Studies in Symbolic Interaction<br />

Volume 37<br />

Editor<br />

Norman K. Denzin, University of Illinois at<br />

Urbana-Champaign, USA<br />

Synopsis<br />

Volume 37 in the bi-annual series Studies in Symbolic Interaction<br />

is divided into three distinct parts: Part One, Theoretical Openings,<br />

focuses on new theoretical work in the interactionist tradition by<br />

leading interdisciplinary scholars. It examines the mesodomain<br />

of welfare reform through re-negotiating the order of economic<br />

inequality, provides a grounded fractal analysis into the medicalization<br />

of homelessness <strong>and</strong> the sociology of the self, <strong>and</strong> looks at the<br />

labeling of immigrant men as criminals. In Part Two, Studies in Social<br />

Construction, focus shifts to issues of gender, ethnicity, illness <strong>and</strong><br />

the urban situation including articles on the social constructions of the<br />

non-prejudiced white self, women’s interaction with romantic comedies<br />

<strong>and</strong> the impact on their relationship, <strong>and</strong> engaging cultural narratives<br />

of the ethnic restaurant. The third <strong>and</strong> final part, Autoethnographic<br />

Interventions, turns inward to autoethnographic reflections on identity,<br />

technology, family, work <strong>and</strong> self-including contributions on the digital<br />

evolution of an American identity <strong>and</strong> nursing’s moral imperative as<br />

the flexible professional <strong>and</strong> the discourse of unexpected evidence.<br />
