Interactionist Currents publishes contemporary
interactionist works of exceptional quality to advance the state of
symbolic interactionism. Rather than revisiting classical symbolic
interactionist or pragmatist theory, however, this series extends
the boundaries of interactionism by examining new empirical topics
in subject areas that interactionists have not sufficiently
examined; systematizing, organizing, and reflecting on the state of
interactionist knowledge in subfields both central and novel within
interactionist research; connecting interactionism with
contemporary intellectual movements; and illustrating the
contemporary relevance of interactionism in ways that are
interesting, original, and enjoyable to read.
Recognizing an honored and widely appreciated theoretical
tradition, reflecting on its limitations, and opening new
opportunities for the articulation of related perspectives and
research agendas, this series presents work from across the social
sciences that makes explicit use of interactionist ideas and
concepts, interactionist research, and interactionist theory - both
classical and contemporary.
