The Anthem Companion to Harold Garfinkel

The Anthem Companion to Harold Garfinkel brings together leading scholars and upcoming researchers in contemporary ethnomethodology to bring out the experimental character of Garfinkels legacy in the social sciences and beyond. Therefore, the Companion takes its cue from Garfinkels noted breaching experiments, enabling the reflexive investigation of trust conditions in situ, and asks how this research interest has been productively pursued and distinctively rearticulated, both within and beyond Garfinkels oeuvre. Whilst Garfinkels experimental legacy is often acknowledged, no systematic introduction to its distinctive outlook, tension-riddled diversification, and heuristic interest(s) is available to date. The Anthem Companion to Harold Garfinkel both fills and reflects upon that gap in the literature, thereby articulating ethnomethodologys experimental outlook, if not recasting its current research directions.
