The Deviant Mystique - Involvements, Realities, and Regulation (Hardcover): Scott Grills, Robert Prus The Deviant Mystique - Involvements, Realities, and Regulation (Hardcover)

Adopting a symbolic interactionist perspective and building extensively on the ethnographic research tradition, this book analyzes the mystique that often accompanies deviance by examining deviance as an ongoing feature of community life. Because deviance is approached in nonprescriptive ways, as a product of community interchange, the emphasis here is on the ways in which deviance is defined, engaged, and regulated. It is examined as the product of human association, as something that is generated by people as they interact with one another, assume viewpoints and initiatives, and try to influence and resist one another within the context of community life. Prus and Grills do not attempt to address various deviant behaviors; instead, they provide readers with a glimpse into how deviance is formulated, practiced, viewed, and treated. Who defines deviance? Why? What are the effects of deviance on others? How do subcultures form? These and other questions are answered in this unique approach to the study of deviance. Providing a conceptually coherent framework for approaching the study of deviance as an ongoing feature of the human community, the authors pay special attention to the many theaters of operation in which people come together and engage one another with respect to morality and deviance. Recognizing that audience definitions of deviance are pivotal to community notions of reality and actual interaction, consideration is given to the interrelated processes of defining deviance, identifying deviants, regulating deviance informally and formally, and experiencing treatment and disinvolvement. This thoughtful consideration serves to shed new light on the mystique that has beencreated around ideas about deviance.

Ethnografie hat weiterhin den Geruch von Abenteuer. Der vorliegende Band bietet eine Heranfuhrung an die ethnografische Haltung und Praxis, mit der das immersive Abenteuer der Feldarbeit und das akademische Abenteuer der Schreibarbeit zusammen bestritten werden konnen.
Als von Interaktionisten verfasste Einfuhrung bietet er Einsteigern eine klassische, zuruck zu den Chicagoer Wurzeln fuhrende Praxis an, in der Intersubjektivitat, Offenheit, Unwagbarkeit, Aufs-Feld-Einlassen und kreative Neuschopfung aus dem Feld heraus betont werden. Dabei ist er theoretisch fundiert und feldpraktisch ausfuhrlich gehalten: Mit reichhaltigen Beispielen zeigt er auf, wie die Sammlung von Material, die begleitende Analyse und das schlussendliche Verfassen eines analytisch gebundenen Feldberichts organisiert werden konnen. Zugleich aber steht er in der interaktionistischen Tradition, die "Realitat des Feldes" als primare Realitat zu sehen, die nicht durch extern angelegte Theorie oder Methode planiert werden darf. Damit ist es eine Einleitung in eine kreative, pluralistische und bescheidene ethnografische Haltung.
