Fermeture sociale, différence et diversité: des enjeux identitaires
Journal Title: Journal of Comparative Research in Anthropology and Sociology - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
L’article se réfère à la notion de «fermeture sociale» en partant de la conceptualisation du Max Weber et, ensuite, en la problématisant à travers un commentaire sur les quatre articles publiés dans le numéro 1 / 2011 de la revue Compaso. L’auteur insiste sur l’idée que la «fermeture sociale» s’avère être une approche théorique féconde dans la recherche sur la construction identitaire et sur la production des hiérarchies sociales.
