Symbolic Interaction in Society explores the core principles of symbolic interactionism and its applications to understanding social life. This book examines how individuals create meaning through interaction, using symbols and language to navigate and shape their social world. It delves into key concepts such as the self, identity, and social roles, highlighting how these are constructed and negotiated through ongoing social processes. By emphasizing the importance of subjective interpretation and social context, the book provides a framework for analyzing a wide range of social phenomena, including communication, deviance, and social change. It offers insights into how our interactions with others shape our perceptions, behaviors, and ultimately, the very fabric of society. This text provides a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in understanding the dynamics of human interaction and its impact on the social world.
