TL;DR: There is a growing discontent among therapists of varying orientations as discussed by the authors, noting some of the political, economic, and social forces apt to affect our likelihood of ever reaching a consensus within the field and presenting an approach to the delineation and study of commonalities across various orientations.
Abstract: There is a growing discontent among therapists of varying orientations. Psychoanalytic, behavioral, and humanistically oriented clinicians are starting to raise serious questions about the limits of their respective approaches and are becoming more open to contributions from other paradigms. This article documents this trend within the field, which resembles a Kuhnian-type crisis, noting some of the political, economic, and social forces apt to affect our likelihood of ever reaching a consensus within the field and presenting an approach to the delineation and study of commonalities across various orientations.

TL;DR: Although the symposiasts present plausible theoretical positions and occasional ingenious arguments, their contributions can be criticized on several grounds as discussed by the authors, such as the focus of their papers is on theoretical disputes rather than on real phenomena.
Abstract: Although the symposiasts present plausible theoretical positions and occasional ingenious arguments, their contributions can be criticized on several grounds. The) define the field of "social knowing" very narrowly, so that many significant contributions are overlooked. The focus of their papers is on theoretical disputes rather than on real phenomena. Finally, they seem to rely on an essentially passive conception of human nature, in which observation and judgment are taken as fundamental while social activity is rarely mentioned at all.

TL;DR: In this paper, Bon et al. analyze Bourdieu's critique of political science as an " official science" or " practitioner's art" and conclude that political science cannot claim the status of an established scientific discipline.
Abstract: EnglishThe rationalisation of misconduct : understanding the status of politics according to Pierre Bourdieu Frederic Bon, Yves Schemeil Pierre Bourdieu 's condemnation of political science is final ; as an " official science " or " practitioner's art ", it cannot claim the status of an established scientific discipline. Through his evident misconduct with respect to political scientists, Pierre Bourdieu asks them two questions that they cannot evade : is political science an enterprise aimed at legitimizing the political world and the social hierarchy on which it is founded ? Is it possible to construct a political science on the basis of Bourdieu's social theory ? The answer to the first question must be provisional ; the prosecution must prove its case, for academie political science is hardly recognizable in the portrait of the discipline drawn by Pierre Bourdieu. The answer to the second question lies in a detailed study of the concept of " field ". The conclusion of this analysis is that, in both spirit and letter, Pierre Bourdieu's sociology quashes the very proposal to construct a political science. francaisLa condamnation prononcee par Pierre Bourdieu contre la science politique est sans appel : « science officielle » ou « art du praticien », celle-ci ne saurait pretendre au statut de discipline scientifique constituee. Par son inconduite manifeste envers les politologues, Pierre Bourdieu leur pose deux questions qu'ils ne sauraient eluder : la science politique est-elle une entreprise de legitimation de l'univers politique et de la hierarchie sociale qui le fonde ? Est-il possible de construire une science politique a partir de la theorie sociale de Bourdieu ? La premiere interrogation suscite une reponse provisoire : la charge de la preuve reste a l'accusation, car la science politique academique ne se reconnait guere dans le portrait que trace Pierre Bourdieu de la discipline. Le second probleme trouve sa solution dans un examen detaille du concept de « champ ». Au terme de l'analyse, la sociologie de Pierre Bourdieu, dans son esprit comme dans sa lettre, invalide le projet meme de construire une science politique.

TL;DR: Goffman (1969, p. ix) has told us that his "ultimate interest [is] to develop the study of face-to-face interaction as a naturally bounded analytically coherent field" as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Goffman (1969, p. ix) has told us that his ‘ultimate interest [is] … to develop the study of face-to-face interaction as a naturally bounded analytically coherent field — a sub-area of sociology.’ Given this ultimate interest and acknowledging that the concepts he has presented have been widely used and cited by others in the discipline, I wish to consider how and in what ways his studies develop the field of face-to-face interaction.1

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review some of the unresolved and under-attended issues of the 1970s in the field of aging, while proposing an educational model for the 1980s that constructively addresses the problems facing the rural aged, the backbone of the country.
Abstract: The problems of older persons living in rural United States have inadvertently been forgotten in the rat race of generic gerontological training and public program implementation. They have become, however, one of the newly discovered minority groups in the 1970s. Their remoteness to “power groups,” underrepresentation, culturally valued independence and stamina, and less vocal attitude in a reactive U.S. system that seemingly rewards more aggressive behavior have all been factors contributing to political, bureaucratic, academic, and professional biases that view older persons living in rural United States as second class citizens. Thus a massive, concentrated effort that focuses on the problems facing the rural elderly is long overdue. This paper is designed to review some of the unresolved and under‐attended issues of the 1970s in the field of aging, while proposing an educational model for the 1980s that constructively addresses the problems facing the rural aged, the backbone of the country.
