Dynamics of Shame in Residential Care: An Ethnography of Child and Youth Services and Disability Services


Overview

In diesem Buch untersucht die Autorin Schamdynamiken in der stationären Betreuung von Jugendlichen anhand eines ethnografischen Ansatzes. Ausdrucksformen von Scham seitens der Jugendlichen, ihrer Betreuer und die Wahrnehmung von Scham durch die Forscherin dienen als Bezugspunkte, um Kontraste und strukturelle Zusammenhänge in den Daten zu identifizieren. Die Autorin bezieht auch moderne Affekttheorien ein, die betonen, dass ein dichotomes Verständnis von Affekten als entweder positiv oder negativ ihrer komplexen Funktion nicht gerecht wird. Auf diese Weise beleuchtet die Arbeit die soziale Bedeutung von Affekten und zeigt den Wert der Affektforschung für die Sozialpädagogik auf.
