- Summary:
- 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. In this book, the author uses an ethnographic approach to examine the topic of shame dynamics in residential care for adolescents. Expressions of shame by adolescents, their care workers, and the researchers' perception of shame are used as reference points to identify contrasts and structural connections in the data. The author also includes approaches from the sociology of emotion and affect studies, which emphasise that a dichotomous understanding of affects as either positive or negative does not do justice to their complex functions. In this way, the book sheds light on the social meaning of affects and demonstrates the value of affect research for social pedagogy.
