EMCA Seminar 2014 : Garfinkel's Early Works
Professor Shiro Kashimura
Graduate School of Law
Kobe University
In the Spring-Summer term of 2014 we would like to examine the papers written by Harold Garfinkel in the years prior to the seminal publication of Studies in Ethnomethodology (1967). The papers include "Inter- and Intra-racial Homicide" (1949), "Sociological Concepts and Methods for Psychiatrists"(1956), "Status Degradations" (1956), the selected chapters of The Perception of the Other: A Study in Social Order (1952) and Toward a Sociological Theory of Information (1952=2008), and some unpublished manuscripts. We shall look for the developments and influences up to the crystalization of the ideas of ethnomethodology around1954 and in the preceding and the following years. We shall conclude with considering the responses by sociologists in U.S. and elsewhere to the publication using the review articles and excerpts from The Purdue Symposium on Ethnomethodology in 1968.
The early publications and biographical events in Garfinkel's scholarly life are listed in my site: Formative Steps of Ethnomethodology.
The class will meet in Room 406 of “Frontier” Building at 10:40-14:50 (the ending time depending on the discussion) on every Tuesday starting on May 13, 2014.
