In the Crawlspace of the Organization
比较三种不同类型机构中的“爬行空间”(即允许或迫使参与者进行次级调整的组织象征维度),探讨其对自我假设、规范模式、制裁及成员意义的差异。
Although Goffman advocated comparative study of underlife at the time that he wrote Asylums, little work has been done by students of organization. The present paper offers a comparison of underlife in three different types of establishment by focusing on "crawlspace," those symbolic dimensions of organization which allow or compel participants to engage in secondary adjustment. The important dimensions are assumptions about self, normative patterns, sactions, and general meaning of membership/participation in the organization.
