Civilités, rituels, drames, contextes : la microsociologie est l'étude des formes routinières ou inédites de nos engagements en situation. La notion de moment résume cette caractéristique de la vie publique d'être située et descriptible mais aussi d'être vulnérable, c'est-à-dire ouverte aux malentendus et aux interprétations sur les cadres d'un événement ou d'une action. Confrontées à la pluralité des mondes sociaux, nos compétences sociales se mesurent ordinairement à la capacité que nous avons de surmonter un malaise ou de parvenir à un accord. C'est ce domaine de l'organisation sociale des rencontres que la microsociologie construit comme un domaine de plein droit et dont ce livre tente d'explorer l'architecture conceptuelle et les développements empiriques. En prenant pour objet l'ordre de l'interaction, Erving Goffman (1922-1982) propose à la sociologie de confirmer son héritage en se démarquant des psychologies sociales et des philosophies de l'intersubjectivité. Mais, en écho des interrogations contemporaines sur la notion d'espace public, il l'invite également à décrire et analyser de manière originale et rigoureuse les conditions et les conséquences de l'accessibilité mutuelle constitutive des relations en public dans les situations ordinaires.

"This book explores the fertility and enigma of Irving Goffman's sociological reasoning and its capacity to shed fresh light on the fundamental features of human sociality. Thematically arranged, it brings together the work of leading scholars of Goffman's work to explore the concepts and themes that define Goffman's analytical preoccupations, examining the ways these ideas have shaped significant fields of study and situating Goffman's sociology in comparison to some eminent thinkers often linked with his name. Through a series of chapters informed by the same inventive and imaginative spirit characteristic of Goffman's sociology, it presents fresh perspectives on his contribution to the field and reveals the value of his thought for a variety of disciplines, now increasingly aware of the importance of Goffman's sociology to a range of social phenomena. A fresh perspective on the legacy of one of sociology's most important figures, The Routledge International Handbook of Goffman Studies will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in interactionist and micro-sociological perspectives"--

This book is about Erving Goffman’s frame analysis as it, on the one hand, was presented in his 1974 book Frame Analysis and, on the other, was actually conducted in a number of preceding substantial analyses of different aspects of social interaction such as face-work, impression management, fun in games, behavior in public places and stigmatization. There was, in other words, a frame analytic continuity in Goffman’s work. In an article published after his death in 1982, Goffman also maintained that he throughout his career had been studying the same object: the interaction order. In this book, the author states that Goffman also applied an overarching perspective on social interaction: the dynamic relation between ritualization, vulnerability and working consensus. However, there were also cracks in Goffman´s work and one is shown here with reference to the leading question in Frame Analysis – what is it that’s going on here? While framed on a "microsocial" level, that question ties in with "the interaction order" and frame analysis as a method. If, however, it is framed on a societal level, it mirrors metareflective and metasocial manifestations of changes and unrest in the interaction order that, in some ways, herald the emphasis on contingency, uncertainty and risk in later sociology. Through analyses of social media as a possible new interaction order – where frame disputes are frequent – and of interactional power, the applicability of Goffman’s frame analysis is illustrated. As such, this book will appeal to scholars and students of social theory, classical sociology and social interaction.
