While most studies of social interaction have gone behind closed doors to focus on relationships in the family, school, and workplace, this innovative collection pushes the boundaries of the field by analyzing both fleeting and anchored relationships in the seldom-studied communal areas where much of contemporary life takes place. The contributors shed light on the diversity and character of day-to-day negotiations in public spaces and at the same time illuminate how these social ties paradoxically blend aspects of durability and brevity, of emotional closeness and distance, of being together and alone. 606 $aInterpersonal relations 606 $aPublic spaces 610 $aanthropology. 610 $abars. 610 $abus stops. 610 $acity streets. 610 $acommunal areas. 610 $acontemporary life. 610 $acultural anthropologists. 610 $adiscussion groups. 610 $aemotional closeness. 610 $afamily relationships. 610 $ainterpersonal relationships. 610 $anonfiction study. 610 $aparking lots. 610 $apassing strangers. 610 $apersonal relationships. 610 $aprivate lives. 610 $apublic spaces. 610 $apublic sphere. 610 $aretail stores. 610 $aschool setting. 610 $asocial interaction. 610 $asocial perspective. 610 $asocial relationships. 610 $asocial ties. 610 $aworkplace relationships. 615 0$aInterpersonal relations. 615 0$aPublic spaces. 676 $a302 701 $aMorrill$b Calvin$01467801 701 $aSnow$b David A$0320026 701 $aWhite$b Cindy H.$f1965-$01467802 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783313103321 996 $aTogether alone$93678636 997 $aUNINA
