This book provides detailed studies of members' use of membership categories across various settings from the O.J. Simpson trial, via TV commercials and news headlines, to school staff and referral meetings. The studies show that category use is occasional, that culture is always internal to action; accordingly sociology's key theoretical problems and substantive areas are re-specified in terms of members' methods of membership categorization. This is the first collection of original, unpublished studies by internationally renowned practitioners of ethnomethodology of members' uses of the descriptive resources of language to describe persons. Co-published with The International Institute for Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStephen Hester\u003c\/b\u003e is Senior Lecturer in the School of Sociology and Social Policy at the University of Wales in Bangor, the United Kingdom. \u003cb\u003ePeter Eglin\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 193\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.61 x 9 x 6.02 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 26, 1996\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51862375399712,"sku":"9780761805847","price":161.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/PzrPaDHtx59780761805847.webp?v=1781630954","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/culture-in-action-studies-in-membership-categorization-analysis-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
