First published in 1995. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
A study which attempts to formulate an anthropological approach to consciousness. This text explores the importance of the conscious self, and of the conscious collectively, in the construction and interpretation of social relations and process. It asks the question: to what extent is the consciousness of individuals modelled by the cultures and social structures within which they live?.
Anthony Cohen makes a distinct break with earlier approaches to the study of community, which treated the subject in largely structural terms. His view is interpretive and experiential, seeing the community as a cultural field with a complex of symbols whose meanings vary among its members. He delineates a concept applicable to local and ethnic communities through which people see themselves as belonging to society. The emphasis on boundary is sensitive to the circumstances in which people become aware of the implications of belonging to a community, and describes how they symbolise and utilise these boundaries to give substance to their values and identities.
