Better ways of thinking, feeling, and acting—around problems of meaning and meaninglessness; self and society; ethics, purpose, and value.

This silly story tries to encabulate a central point of ethnomethodology, which is that reasonable judgements of what COUNTS AS what pervasively underlie and shape everyday activity; and we do that by giving ACCOUNTS of what things count as and why…
Formal rationality, whether science or financial accounting, has important differences from everyday reasonableness, but cannot operate without it. There are always borderline cases that formal rules cannot specify and that must not be decided arbitrarily either.pic.twitter.com/m2SYArg2Y3
Harold Garfinkel, the founder of ethnomethodology, studied financial accounting during the Depression as the “learn to code!” of the day. Accounting analogies are pervasive in his work. Pragmatic mundane realism marks his later studies of scientists at work too.pic.twitter.com/MxqNLAPqmj
Lucy Suchman, from whom I learned most of what little I know of ethnomethodology, did a thesis on Xerox’s business travel reimbursement practices. That was the inspiration for the story I posted at the beginning of this thread. [I can’t find this thesis online, unfortunately!]pic.twitter.com/1CbhobYtJ1
Here you go (right?) http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/xerox/parc/techReports/ISL-6_Plans_and_Situated_Actions.pdf …
Thanks… this one is not the one about accounting. I think this one is her PhD thesis and the accounting one must have been a Master’s, but I’m not certain!
Maybe this is closer to home. https://www.ida.liu.se/~729G12/mtrl/suchman_1983.pdf …
Thank you! I hadn’t seen this before.
