Theorizing the Standoff: Contingency in Action (Cambridge Cultural Social Studies) Book

This book combines original theoretical analysis with real life case studies to examine the nature of the standoff. The author explores the archetypal patterns of human action and cognition that move us into and out of these highly charged situations and seeks to theorize the contingency of all such moments. Evoking original ideas about time, space and appropriate or anticipated action, this book aims to develop a theory of the fundamental existential indeterminacy of social life and the role improvisation can play in preventing violent outcomes.Read More
