On Drifting Apart: Temporality and Space in the Dissolution of Relationships
Sociologists have written thousands of pages on collective action but surprisingly little on how people and groups drift apart. Following the traditions of interactionist and processual sociology, this article develops a conceptual framework that explains the complex and dynamic social process of relationship dissolution. Our framework underscores three formal aspects of relationship dissolution: relational, temporal, and spatial. Though actors have agency in ending relationships, the physical and social spaces, in which they are located, as well as their varying access to those spaces, shape this process. Duration, frequency, rhythm, and synchronization, which are shaped by a series of events that influence the dynamics of interaction, characterize the temporality of relationship dissolution. The dissolution of relationships entails spatial and eventful changes to actors, their positions, and the nature of their interactions.
期刊介绍:
The Society for the Study of Symbolic Interaction is a social science professional organization of scholars interested in qualitative, especially interactionist, research. The society organizes panels and sessions at annual conferences such as the American Sociological Association and Midwest Sociology Society Annual Meetings, and each Spring holds the Couch-Stone Symposium. As the main voice of the Symbolic Interactionist perspective, Symbolic Interaction brings you articles which showcase empirical research and theoretical development that resound throughout the fields of sociology, social psychology, communication, education, nursing, organizations, mass media, and others.
