✦ Synopsis

For several decades, sociology has been dominated by the mainly Anglo-American traditions of behaviourism, functionalism, and systems theory. Since the sixties, however, there has been a revival of theoretical and methodological orientations in sociology, converging under the general designation of "interactionism". The various streams of sociological thinking are described, "interactionism" is discussed, and the interactionist paradigm is compared with some other major streams of contemporary social thinking.
