Procedimientos interpretativos y reglas normativas en la negociación del "status" y rol
Se compara la teoria de las "condiciones mínimas para la comunicación" con el modelo dominante de normas sociales y de comportamiento para explicar la negociación social del estatus y el rol como aparecen representados en el modelo de investigación de actor y observador. Se critican las teorías existentes por utilizar la noción de "asunción de rol" sin explicar el reconocimiento del rol y el estatus por parte del actor; y por fallar al explicar e…
Court Hearings
The court hearings of one of the male juveniles in this case are particularly revealing because of the interchanges between the private counsel and the referee. Many negotiated encounters between Linda&s;s parents and the P.O., the P.O. and her supervisor, the judge, probation officials at Juvenile Hall, teachers, and the like, preceded the court hearing. This chapter discusses the entire process is managed and negotiated by socially organized ac…
Conversational Depictions of Social Organization
A theoretical statement about social organization must clarify the organization of social actions that produce phenomena viewed as "routine," "normal," or "common" instances of the events and objects handled by participating actors. The chapter argues that police and probation officials "make the system work" despite many problems associated with classifying juveniles, events labeled "offenses," "family settings," and the like. The interrogation,…
Preliminary Issues of Theory and Method
In studying the agencies of social control in a "community", this chapter provides an empirical setting for raising basic issues by focusing on how juveniles are labeled "delinquent." It critically discusses theoretical and methodological positions structural-functionalists utilize for recommending writer&s;s work. The chapter uses the term objectification to denote the observer&s;s and the actor&s;s attempts to convince the reader of the credibi…
Law-Enforcement Practices and Middle-Income Families
The law-enforcement officials are now joined by the psychologist in deciding that Drew&s;s conduct is not criminal in intent, but the product of underlying psychological problems that manifest themselves in delinquent conduct. The officer disposed of the case with the familiar "counselled, warned and released," There were many similar cases in upper middle-income families where the problem was continual drinking, including the parents&s; admittin…
Concluding Remarks
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book discusses the members of socially organized activities, through their practical reasoning, seek order in their perception and interpretation of an environment of objects to articulate the particulars of an unfolding action scene with some general policy or rule. The study challanges the conventional view which assumes "del…
Routine Practices of Law-Enforcement Agencies
The category "mother" is being called into doubt, and the report provides behavioral referents for questioning structural notions of status and role, and specifies the kind of activities "third parties" and law-enforcement officials respond to as deviant. The Chief relied upon him for many speeches in the community on problems relating to juvenile delinquency. The many police descriptions of the murder charge all agreed that Jorge shot two other …
Delinquency Rates and Organizational Settings
This chapter focuses on delinquency and delinquents taken from police and probation files are examined to reveal how official statistics are assembled. It argues that conventional sociological explanations rely upon tacit assumptions about how the governments and law-enforcement agencies of particular communities work and that these assumptions are too often unexamined. The chapter argues that conventional sociological explanations do not take su…
Theories of Delinquency and the Rule of Law
This chapter discusses the criticize traditional sociological theories of delinquency, as theories of crime were questioned by Sutherland in his work on white-collar crime, by reference to the meaning of official statistics, the organizational practices of law-enforcement officials, and the prevalence of middle-to-upper-class delinquency. It focuses on the importance of decision-making as it occurs within the practical circumstances of police, pr…
The Social Organization of Juvenile Justice
The Social Organization of Juvenile Justice recasts familiar sociological problems of research within a dramatically new and different theoretical and methodological perspective. In seeing law enforcement officers, no less than those accuse of criminal behavior, as locked into the creation of history, or more precisely, a series of retrospective and prospective interpretations of events both within and disengaged from, the social contexts relevan…

Collective Memory, A Fusion of cognitive Mechanisms and cultural Processes
Origin and Demise of Socio-cultural Presentations of Self from Birth to Death
The emergence, social differentiation, and reproduction of human communities require socialization of the young. Socialization practices require caregivers and socially distributed, intuitive, normative knowledge systems to enable progeny to acquire and sustain habitual, socially organized skills and belief systems. Neurobiological, cognitive, emotional, and socio-cultural evolution enabled and paralleled the acquisition of communicative and soci…
Processus cognitifs, interactions et structures sociales
Les recherches sur le cerveau et celles sur les structures sociales se touchent souvent mais cheminent indépendamment. On considère ici que des mécanismes biologiques et des pressions environnementales pour la survie ont façonné simultanément une intersection graduelle de ces deux registres, transformant les conditions de l'interaction sociale collaborative et des compétences en matière de communication. De cette manière, on peut identifier des «…

Working With John I. Kitsuse
John Rawls on Two Concepts of Rules
Over fifty years have passed since the publication of John Rawls' paper 'Two Concepts of Rules' (1955). The paper remains a unique work. Rawls' seminal 'distinction between justifying a practice and justifying a particular action falling under it' (1955: 3) provides us with a powerful analytic proposition that can have extensive theoretical and empirical consequences for the social sciences, as I seek to demonstrate below. In footnote 1 on page 3…
Socialization between toddlers and robots at an early childhood education center
A state-of-the-art social robot was immersed in a classroom of toddlers for >5 months. The quality of the interaction between children and robots improved steadily for 27 sessions, quickly deteriorated for 15 sessions when the robot was reprogrammed to behave in a predictable manner, and improved in the last three sessions when the robot displayed again its full behavioral repertoire. Initially, the children treated the robot very differently tha…
A personal, retrospective view of ecological validity
The notion of ecological validity has been an abiding topic either implicitly or explicitly during my entire academic career. Ecological validity focuses on how we seek to convince others of the viability and authenticity of our claims and can be understood by our use of primary and secondary data sources such as official statistics, demographic distributions, sample surveys, structured interviews, open-ended or unstructured interviews, and recor…
Comunicação e sobrecarga cognitiva em duas situações de atendimento médico
Este texto discute um aspecto pouco estudado do atendimento médico, qual seja, o papel do pessoal não-médico em garantir as atividades necessárias à realização dos serviços profissionais. A confluência da interação social organizacional com os constrangimentos do processamento da informação cognitiva cria "ruído" em ambientes institucionalizados. Os limites da atenção e da memória sempre influenciam a capacidade de os participantes compreender a …

In conclusion, we may suggest that in the light of such considerations as have been discussed here, it may be possible to assess the role of the administration in the affairs of the professional more adequately than has yet been done. It is very easy to see how, under some circumstances, administrative efforts at control of work are not mere bureaucratic aggrandizement, but conscientious efforts to fill a genuine vacuum engendered by the peculiar…

Text and Discourse
Speaking, listening, writing, and reading are integral aspects of what we seek to convey by such notions as culture, symbolism, identity, and community when we examine human daily life across its folk-taxonomic savage and domesticated manifestations (15). The creation, analysis, storage, and growth of knowledge presuppose cognitive and linguistic processes for their sociocultural production and understanding. Knowledge is both a topic and a resou…

La gestion des rendez-vous dans un service médical spécialisé
L'article traite les pratiques organisationnelles et discursives durant des aspects ordinaires mais souvent négligés de la prestation de soins médicaux : les problèmes d'organisation du temps dans un service médical spécialisé. Un problème typique survient lorsque les patients ne se présentent pas et que beaucoup de temps (et d'argent) est perdu, ou lorsqu'un patient doit être « glissé » dans un planning déjà surchargé de traitements et de rendez…
The Role of Cognitive-Linguistic Concepts in Understanding Everyday Social Interactions
The rapid growth of the platform economy has provoked scholarly discussion of its consequences for the nature of work and employment. We identify four major themes in the literature on platform work and the underlying metaphors associated with each. ...Read More
La connaissance distribuée dans le diagnostic médical
Le diagnostic médical , généralement considéré comme une tâche conceptuelle élaborée, apparaît également comme le produit d'une activité sociale complexe. Cette complexité sociale se manifeste dans la variation qui affecte les statuts du personnel soignant mais également dans les aptitudes cognitives attribuées. Or la crédibilité de l'information clinique est directement affectée par le statut ou les attributions de compétences prêtées au patient…

Cognitive and organizational aspects of medical diagnostic reasoning
This paper addresses the use of oral and written communication in an area where the investigator's expertise often is exceeded by the knowledge base of informants. The education of medical “house staff (fourth year medical students, interns, residents and training fellows) in a teaching hospital provides an opportunity to study the contribution of patient‐physician communication to medical diagnostic reasoning. The training of house staff occurs …

Kinship, Marriage, and Divorce in Comparative Family Law
Sociological studies of the family, ethnographic studies of kinship and marriage, and legal accounts of family law have been neither clear nor comparable in explaining how members perceive and interpret arrangements such as "marriage" or "divorce." These comparative studies invariably include case materials, and accounts which presuppose various linguistic and para-linguistic phenomena, meanings, and unexplicated usages. The precise character of …
The interaction of discourse, cognition and culture
The kinds of social interaction necessary for the existence of human cultural practices and institutions and the human ability to change and survive depended on at least four (among other) conditions: biological brain evolution, cognition/affective processes, ethnographically-based cultural beliefs and practices, and the kinds of interpersonal relations that motivate or constrain social interaction. Thus human biological and cultural evolution co…

Cicourel's 'Method and Measurement in Sociology' was published nearly 52 years ago. It became one of the most influential social science methodology books of the late 20th and early 21st centuries and for many, one of the more controversial. Drawing on a symposium published in 'The International Journal of Social Research Methodology' (19:1, 2016), this keynote session is please to present Cicourel in conversation with a group of noted methodolog…
