Ethnomethodology has always been something of an irritant for sociology, questioning many of sociology’s basic assumptions. Harold Garfinkel, ethnomethodology’s founder, insisted that sociologists had no other tools at their disposal than does any member of a society, and that what can be said about how the social world works is undetachable from the situation it is brought about in. In this course, we will look at what these assumptions imply for sociological inquiry. We will discuss ethnomethodological studies, looking at the different research fields that have developed from ethnomethodological thought. We will also conduct a number of miniature studies into the situated order of everyday life in order to achieve first hand understanding of how ethnomethodology works.
Requirements for participation, required level
-
You should already have a general understanding of qualitative research methodology, and initial knowledge about ethnomethodology and/or conversation analysis.
I also expect your willingness to read and critically discuss course materials, to hand in weekly written assignments on time, and to engage in regular miniature studies of social life.
