Harold Garfinkel

pp. 9-56

Abstract

Over the years Husserl’s texts offered to my readings in sociology many sources of alternative subjects—transformations and elaborations of sociology’s conventional topics in the problem of social order. The subjects were original to sociology. The subjects were original to sociology’s occupation with specifying with precision, descriptive adequacy, and evidence social order in and as of Durkheim’s organizational Things in their details of ordinary society as sociology’s unique, identifying subject.
