SOCIOLOGICAL
OBSERVATIONS
Series Editor: JOHN M. JOHNSON, Arizona State University
"This series seeks its inspiration primarily from its subject matter and the nature
of its observational setting. It draws on all academic disciplines and a wide variety
of theoretical and methodological perspectives. The series has a commitment to sub
stantive problems and issues and favors research and analysis which seek to blend
actual observations of human actions in daily life with broader theoretical, com
parative, and historical perspectives. SOCIOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS aims
to use all of our available intellectual resources to better understand all facets of
human experience and the nature of our society."
-John M. Johnson
