Reihe: Knowledge, Communication and Society

This volume applies interpretive video-analysis to explore the intersections between the sociology of knowledge and interaction studies. Presenting a series of studies that draw on video-analytic and videographic approaches to research, it examines the way video data can shed light on connections between social phenomena at the micro-, meso-, and macro-levels, and the access that it grants to the temporality of social reality. With empirical research in fields such as care, consumption, gaming, military, music, science, and violence, the studies in this volume show how the video-analytic approach provides an empirical basis for progress in social theory and aids the development of the concept of knowledge. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology with interests in social theory, the sociology of knowledge, and visual methods in social research.
