Description

This Routledge book presents a fresh theoretical perspective on how social interaction actually works, challenging the conventional view that ritual is the foundation of social life. Instead, the author argues that status and power are the twin forces that truly structure all social relations, determine emotional responses, and connect individuals to the reference groups that shape culture and administer beliefs and actions. The book examines the sociological work of Emile Durkheim, Erving Goffman and Randall Collins to demonstrate how status hierarchies and power dynamics operate beneath the surface of ritual behaviour, driving the everyday interactions that constitute social life. This relational reading offers sociology students, academics and professionals a compelling framework for understanding human behaviour, group dynamics and the mechanisms through which social order is maintained and meaning is created.
