For a sociologist, everyday life begins even before they pick up a questionnaire or go for an interview. Sociology surrounds them at home and in the office, penetrates their thinking, and shapes their sociological imagination. Without it, one cannot think of the general in unity with the particular. In how we think, how we walk, and what we buy, cultural codes and social meanings are contained, through which and thanks to which society builds itself as we see it today. Armchairs, sofas, blankets, piercings, and painted bodies express cultural norms that organize social space, define distances, distance, and barriers within it. They help and hinder us in communicating, interacting, and undergoing socialization. Some find them troublesome, others call them trivial, while others show care for others.
The book is addressed to a wide range of specialists and non-specialists, to those who, in order to broaden their horizons or specific training, are interested in questions of sociology, cultural studies, philosophy, and related disciplines.
