This book, adopting a systemic transdisciplinary perspective, explores the sociopsychological and the psychosocial interfaces shaping people's lived experiences of liminality. It is about life's outstandingly chaotic and confusing moments regularly recurring in or under calamitous circumstances, pervading our lives in the 21st century. Prospects for constructive change have traditionally been present in transformative liminal settings. The broad context of permanent liminality, however, is conducive to impasses in the process of change. The resulting liminal hotspots are characterized by a turmoil of negative feelings and increased suggestibility. In the book, discursive analyses underpin and illustrate the key points.
Part I of the book serves as an introduction, exploring the mixed potential inherent languaging and symbol use in the social construction of transitions and liminal phenomena. Part II comprises sociopsychological analyses of the contexts - as labyrinths of meaning - of today's globalized, a-mazed societies where economy, politics and info-communication technologies are closely intertwined to maintain trickster liminality. This part includes explorations on two distinct forms of manipulative discourse characteristic of authoritarian regimes, highlighting the role of double bind relations that permeate a despotic system to perpetuate unpredictability, chaos, and repeated entrapments in liminal hotspots. The author explores the discursive practices altering the traditional patterns of transformative liminality into the absurdity of permanent liminality with its (self)destructive power. Part III is about the psychosocial interface, focusing on the intersubjective domain of the individual's lived experiences, specifically on the phenomenological connections between rites of transition and psychosocial crises. Further, it comprises explorations on the prospects for transformative liminality inherent in dialogue.
As a conclusion, humans' constructive potential must be coupled with care to benefit from transformations. Transitioning from one form-of-process into the subsequent one remains an intrinsic and mercurial event in human development. Let us embrace these moments - but embrace them with care.
Transitions - Liminality as Lived Experience is primarily intended for scholars, as well as students (master's level or PhD), in the broad area of social sciences, especially in social communication, discourse studies, counselling, semiotic cultural psychology, social psychology, and clinical social work.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書採用系統性跨學科的視角，探討社會心理學與心理社會學的交互界面，塑造人們在邊緣狀態中的生活經驗。它關於生活中那些在災難性情況下經常出現的混亂和困惑的時刻，這些時刻在21世紀的生活中無處不在。傳統上，建設性變革的前景存在於變革性的邊緣環境中。然而，持續的邊緣狀態的廣泛背景卻有助於變革過程中的僵局。由此產生的邊緣熱點特徵是負面情緒的動盪和增強的暗示性。本書中的論述分析支撐並說明了關鍵點。
本書的第一部分作為引言，探討了在社會建構過渡和邊緣現象中，語言和符號使用所固有的混合潛力。第二部分包括對當今全球化、迷失社會的背景進行社會心理學分析，這些社會中經濟、政治和信息通信技術緊密交織，以維持狡詐的邊緣狀態。這一部分包括對兩種特徵於威權政權的操控性話語的探索，突顯了滲透專制體系的雙重束縛關係的角色，以延續不可預測性、混亂和在邊緣熱點中的重複陷阱。作者探討了改變傳統變革性邊緣狀態模式的話語實踐，將其轉變為永久邊緣狀態的荒謬性及其（自我）毀滅的力量。第三部分關於心理社會界面，專注於個體生活經驗的主觀領域，特別是過渡儀式與心理社會危機之間的現象學聯繫。此外，還包括對對話中固有的變革性邊緣狀態前景的探索。
作為結論，人類的建設性潛力必須與關懷相結合，以從變革中受益。從一種過程形式過渡到下一種形式仍然是人類發展中內在且變幻莫測的事件。讓我們擁抱這些時刻——但要小心地擁抱它們。
《過渡 - 邊緣性作為生活經驗》主要針對社會科學廣泛領域的學者以及碩士或博士生，特別是在社會傳播、話語研究、輔導、符號文化心理學、社會心理學和臨床社會工作等領域。
