  • Skatvedt, Astrid; Schou, Kirsten Costain (2008): The beautiful in the commonplace. In: European Journal of Cultural Studies 11 (1), S. 83-100. DOI: 10.1177/1367549407084965

    Abstract: During fieldwork in a rehabilitation institution for drug abusers, I(1) became aware that certain, apparently commonplace, informal interaction situations between residents and staff appeared to constitute emotionally moving and identity-constructing situations which apparently had a great impact on the residents. These situations seem, on the surface, to be trivial, minor, superficial and very common. Still, and perhaps because of their 'smallness', they show qualities that suggest authentic interaction, immediate and unfeigned, by participants. This article draws upon an analysis of what I have called 'love-bearing interaction situations' (Skatvedt, 2001) and connects this with theoretical insights drawn from the work of Erving Goffman and Johan Asplund, and from Howard Becker's labelling theory.(2) Of particular interest is a notion touched upon by Goffman, namely, the expression of love in commonplace interaction.
