Presenting original research studies by leading scholars in the
field, Orders of Ordinary Action considers how ethnomethodology
provides for an 'alternate' sociology by respecifying sociological
phenomena as locally accomplished members' activities. Following an
introduction by the editors and a seminal statement of
ethnomethodology's analytic stance by its founder, Harold
Garfinkel, the book then comprises two parts. The first introduces
studies of practical action and organization, whilst the second
provides studies of practical reasoning and situated logic in
various settings. By organizing the book in this way, the
collection demonstrates the relevance of ethnomethodological
investigations to established topics and issues and indicates the
contribution that ethnomethodology can make to the understanding of
human action in any and all social contexts. Both individually and
collectively, these contributions illustrate how taking an
ethnomethodological approach opens up for investigation phenomena
that are taken for granted in conventional sociological theorizing.
