A Penile Implant
This article situates the experiences of having penile implant surgery between medical interventions and privately understood meanings and practices. Using my own experiences, supplemented with information from online sources, I document the changes that occur in the meanings and the practices that implant surgery enables. My analysis derives from the concepts of habitus and the looking glass body, and it begins with a diagnosis of impotence and …
Symbolic Interactionism
Symbolic interactionsim is of major importance in contemporary sociology. In this study, three authorities in the field collaborate to define symbolic interactionism and to describe, and present criticism of, the interactionist perspective. The contributions of G.H. Mead, J. Dewey, C.H. Cooley, W.I. Thomas and other theorists to the interactionist viewpoint on human behaviour and social life are examined. There is a systematic discussion of the d…

Tales of Dogs and Their Homeless Companions
Ringing the Chord
Singing in barbershop choruses and quartets evokes sentimentality and nostalgia as a means of interpreting the present and establishing an identity as a barbershop singer. In choruses devoted to the preservation of a highly stylized form of singing, a gendered social context shapes the acquisition of identities in the development of relationships. An analysis of the barbershop experience reveals that men, particularly those with common background…

Race and Words
The convergence and polarization hypothesis is tested using the standard English vocabulary score in the General Social Survey. Blacks scored significantly lower than whites, and this finding is consistent over the test period, and holds within similar educational, financial status and social class groupings. The hypothesis is not supported with General Social Survey data. Conditions maintaining nonstandard language usage apply to blacks in Ameri…

Working at and Working
Computers may affect the work of ethnographers by transforming the organization of working. The concept of fritter captures a distinction between working and working at doing ethnography. A computer fritter, then, is a way of working at doing work that functions to organize and impart meaning to using computers in research and writing. Several types of computer fritters are identified and described, and these are depicted as a logic-in-action for…

Cultural Knowledge and Systems of Knowing
James P. Spradley developed a systematic program for using personal experiences as data for cultural analysis. According to the program, the diversity of urban culture can be studied using ethnographic interviewing, participant observation and life history techniques. Spradley studied a Kwakiutl chief, tramps, cocktail waitresses, and deaf people and stimulated the study of variety in modern society. Teaching and research are integrated in Spradl…
New Ethnographies
Generally, reviews of new ethnographies or methods texts are solicited and compiled by the New Ethnographies editor. The preferred form, unless specified otherwise, is an 800-1,000-word critical essay addressing theoretical, methodological, and/or substantive contributions of recently published materials relevant to ethnographic inquiry. Unsolicited reviews are welcome, but without the assurance of publication. Abstracts of Ph.D. dissertations ba…

Some Sociolinguistic Aspects of Deaf Educational Policy
By focusing on the assumptions about and interpretations of deafness made by persons who are involved in the formulation of policy for the education of deaf children, a meaning structure for deafness can be uncovered. This meaning structure is developed along three aspects of an interpretative procedure: interchangeability of standpoints, filling-in assumptions and normal forms. The meaning of deafness derives not so much from research findings n…
Sociological Perspectives in Bernstein's Sociolinguistics
An interpretation of selected portions of Bernstein's sociolinguistics is presented. The interpretation suggests that linguistic performance intervenes between social structure and self-concept. The theory is specified through a research application. The specification holds that two views of social structure are implicit within the theory: one micro-cosmic and the other macrocosmic. For Bernstein these views are linked to Mead and Durkheim, respe…
