Conclusion - A Relational View of Moral Phenomena -- . 330 $a'This is the best book yet written among contemporary work in the sociology of morality. Taking an approach based in relational sociology, it develops a theory of the self that balances the non-reflexive and reflexive dimensions of moral action. These achievements make this a vital text for students and researchers interested in the relational understanding of moral activity and decision-making.? ?Ian Burkitt, Emeritus Professor of Social Identity, University of Bradford, UK Providing a theory of moral practice for a contemporary sociological audience, Owen Abbott shows that morality is a relational practice achieved by people in their everyday lives. He moves beyond old dualisms?society versus the individual, social structure versus agency, body versus mind?to offer a sociologically rigorous and coherent theory of the relational constitution of the self and moral practice, which is both shared and yet enacted from an individualized perspective. In so doing, The Self, Relational Sociology, and Morality in Practice not only offers an urgently needed account of moral practice and its integral role in the emergence of the self, but also examines morality itself within and through social relations and practices. Abbott?s conclusions will be of interest to social scientists and philosophers of morality, those working with pragmatic and interactionist approaches, and those involved with relational sociology and social theory. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Relational Sociology 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aCulture 606 $aLife cycle, Human 606 $aEthics 606 $aSociological Theory 606 $aSocial Theory 606 $aSociology of Culture 606 $aLife Course 606 $aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aLife cycle, Human. 615 0$aEthics. 615 14$aSociological Theory. 615 24$aSocial Theory. 615 24$aSociology of Culture. 615 24$aLife Course. 615 24$aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics. 676 $a301 676 $a170 700 $aAbbott$b Owen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0900710 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910370058503321 996 $aThe Self, Relational Sociology, and Morality in Practice$92013068 997 $aUNINA
