Dialogicality and Social Representations: The Dynamics of Mind
Hyperstructures and the Biology of Interpersonal Dependence: Rethinking Reciprocity and Altruism
Fluctuations in endogenous opioid activity in the brain, controlled under ordinary conditions by attachment, are capable of producing patterns of dependence in social behavior resembling those appearing in substance abusers. Withdrawal symptoms arising in relation to these fluctuations, short of producing dependence, ordinarily fuel everyday social interaction, and interaction then serves to modulate opioid activity within a range associated with…

The Architecture of Small Networks: Strong Interaction and Dynamic Organization in Small Social Systems
A new theoretical model of social interaction, conceptualized here as a hyperstructure, provides the basis for simulation experiments designed to explore the network effects of high frequency social dynamics, or strong interactions. Based on neurophysiological discoveries of brain-behavior mechanisms at work in attachment, the theoretical model provides a nonreductionistic understanding of how biological forces constrain social interaction and yi…
Emergence, Self-Organization, and Social Interaction: Arousal-Dependent Structure in Social Systems
these new ideas, and illustrate them using examples from several fields. Our discussion serves to introduce equivalent self-organized phenomena in social interaction. Interaction systems appear to be structured partly by virtue of such emergents. These appear under specific conditions: When cognitive buffering is inadequate relative to the levels of stress persons are subjected to, anxiety-spreading has the potential of pushing their interaction …

Best Friends and Marriage: Exchange Among Women
In this fascinating book, Stacey Oliker delves into the intimate realm of women's friendships and explores the complex relation between friendship and family life. Based on a series of interviews with women from the middle and working classes, this work reveals the distinctive values of best friendship and marriage, how husbands and their wives' friends feel about each other, and how women friends talk about marriage problems. Best Friends and Ma…
Structural Crystallization, Status Inconsistency and Political Partisanship
Conventionalization and Control: An Examination of Adolescent Crowds
Detailed analysis of repeated teen-age resort riots is presented to illustrate selected processes involved in crowd conventionalization. A model of conventionalization is constructed which emphasizes the interdependence of police control, public opinion, and crowd action. Special consideration is given to neglected properties of crowd situations which can be accounted for in terms of patterns of police control and the independence of status syste…
The Emergence and Maintenance of Fraternal Solidarity
taken on behalf of the leadership group itself, rather than for other dispossessed groups in society.20 That such a developing consciousness has consequences for the maintenance of democratic processes in contemporary society is, of course, obvious. Further research will indicate empirically whether or not this theory has relevance for analyzing leadership interaction and social change in other contexts. 20 This process can be related to Robert M…
