An invitation to ‘radical interactionism’
Even though the notion of ‘radical interactionism’ (RI) is perhaps not something most sociologists are yet familiar with, it is nevertheless one of the more recent and potent attempts to think beyond a conventional symbolic interactionist framework. This chapter is an invitation to RI as developed by Lonnie H. Athens. RI insists that society/social interaction should be studied by focusing on themes such as power, domination and conflict, which a…
Reflections on power and intersectionality
This essay argues for a a radical interactionist framework using autoethnographic tools as well as critical feminist perspectives. Not all “masculine” systems are necessarily all “evil” and “feminist” systems are not unambiguously good, devoid of context. The vantage point from which I engage Lonnie Athens’ work on radical interactionism is rooted personally and professionally: as a woman of color who was formerly a tenured Associate Professor of…
Speaking of Monsters
Employing a range of approaches to examine how "monster-talk" pervades not only popular culture but also public policy through film and other media, this book is a "one-stop shop" of sorts for student
Speaking of Monsters
The third shadow and hybrid genres
Alien Resurrection (1997) heightens the movements across dark humor and horror, and enables more pronounced and complex conjunctions across the three types of shadows put forward by Rushing/Frentz and Picart, particularly in the case of the monstrous female characters like Ripley and Call. These characters bisociate the realms of first shadow (female bodies), second shadow (products of technology), and third shadow (fearsome female freedom fighte…
Dharma Dancing
Extending Norman Denzin's innovations in ethnography, and reflecting his concerns with cultural interpretation and visual media, this article offers a multimedia excursion into the conjunction of ballroom dancing and relational theory. By creating a relationship between multiple media (photography and videography) and modes of human communication (poetry, prose, dance, visual art), the article brings forth possibilities not contained in any one a…
Re‐birthing the monstrous
The myth of male self‐birthing (or parthenogenesis), immortalized in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, undergoes a crucial transformation in James Whale's film. This re‐envisaging of the “Frankenstein complex”; is significant insofar as it reveals hidden gendered assumptions and anxieties concerning technology. At an initial level, Whale's film downplays what Rushing and Frentz call the “dystopian”; aspects of the Frankensteinian complex, in compariso…
Metaphysics in Gaston Bachelard's “Reverie”
Scientific Controversy as Farce
This paper examines some aspects of the attempted construction of the `ghostly imprint' phenomenon which resulted in a five-month controversy, pitting immunologists against homeopathists. A striking feature of this case appeared to be its farcical atmosphere - an atmosphere reminiscent of Kafka's satirical comedy, The Trial. First, I show that such a farcical atmosphere marked the initial phase of the `ghostly imprint' episode, caused by (and gen…
