K.Liberman, More studies in ethnomethodology

Chiara Bassetti

pp. 597-602

I shall confess since the beginning that I have fallen in love with this book. Reasons are as varied as its merits. First, it actually constitutes what the title promises: “More Studies in Ethnomethodology”. This is not just because of the (seemingly out of a novel) Foreword by Harold Garfinkel and the life-time collaboration of which the latter and the book itself testify between the founder of Ethnomethodology and one of his students, Kenneth Liberman—by now Professor Emeritus with his own experience of “25 years of teaching ethnomethodology” (Garfinkel: ix). It is especially because of the “freshness” with which the text captures “many ideas central to ethnomethodology” (ibid.).
