In this issue, Athens presents the autobiographies of scholars who have made significant contributions to symbolic interactionist approach, over both the 20th and 21st centuries, including David Altheide, Paul Atkinson, Kathy Chamaraz, Adele Clarke, Gary Cook, Carolyn Ellis, Martyn Hammersley, John Johnson, Joseph Kotarba, and Laurel Richardson. The contributors were all asked to address the question of how they got into their particular fields of study and later became interactionist? They were also prodded to reveal "who is the person behind the professional mask" by describing why and how they changed over the intellectual journeys that they took in becoming some of the best known and well-respected advocates of the symbolic-interactionists approach in America and Great Britain. These autobiographic reflections and revelations not only shatter the popular stereotype of academics, but also the stereotype of scholars who subscribe to viewpoint of symbolic interactionism.Studies in symbolic interaction ;v. 38.Social ScienceGeneralbisacshSocial ScienceSociologyGeneralbisacshSocial ScienceAnthropologyGeneralbisacshSocial theorybicsscSociologybicsscSymbolic interactionismSocial interactionSocial ScienceGeneral.Social ScienceSociologyGeneral.Social ScienceAnthropologyGeneral.Social theory.Sociology.Symbolic interactionism.Social interaction.302Denzin Norman K27745UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910790260703321Blue-ribbon papers3830423UNINA
