Contributions of Microsocial Sociological Currents to Research: An Analysis of Symbolic Interactionism, Phenomenology and Ethnomethodology.
Abstract
Introduction: This reflection article is the result of a documentary research, carried out in the subjects of research I and II, within the Universidad popular del Cesar, this work had the purpose of studying the main contributions of the microsocial sociological currents, such as symbolic interactionism, phenomenology and ethnomethodology, to contemporary research.
Objectives: To interpret the main contributions of micro-social sociological currents, such as symbolic interactionism, phenomenology and ethnomethodology, within the framework of contemporary sociological research.
Methods: The methodology employed in this text is framed within the parameters of the interpretative paradigm and uses the hermeneutic method to understand and interpret the arguments proposed by the micro-social authors.
Results: The general results indicate that, firstly, Symbolic Interactionism has identified how individuals create and modify meanings through interaction, which is fundamental to the study of the construction of identities and social roles. Secondly, the contribution of Phenomenology to the analysis of subjective experience is highlighted, which allows us to understand how people give meaning to their everyday experiences. Finally, Ethnomethodology highlights its role in understanding how social norms are maintained and negotiated in everyday life, thus contributing to the study of the implicit social order. These three sociological streams offer both theoretical and methodological arguments for approaching contemporary research.
Conclusions: Microsocial currents have enriched sociological analysis by focusing on individual and everyday interactions. They have been fundamental to the study of the construction of social reality from the actors' perspective, and have provided qualitative methodologies that complement macro-social approaches.
