He moves beyond old dualisms-society versus the individual, social structure versus agency, body versus mind-to offer a sociologically rigorous and coherent theory of the relational constitution of the self and moral practice, which is both shared and yet enacted from an individualized perspective. In so doing, \u003ci\u003eThe Self, Relational Sociology, and Morality in Practice \u003c\/i\u003enot only offers an urgently needed account of moral practice and its integral role in the emergence of the self, but also examines morality itself within and through social relations and practices. Abbott's conclusions will be of interest to social scientists and philosophers of morality, those working with pragmatic and interactionist approaches, and those involved with relational sociology and social theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Owen Abbott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030318249\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030318246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/05\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 189\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.46d","brand":"Owen Abbott","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44860530262271,"sku":"9783030318246","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_90ef328d-a9f9-4b1b-b4c3-29c000928d07.jpg?v=1709136292","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-self-relational-sociology-and-owen-abbott-9783030318246","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
