Boundary Making Approach and Contact Theory. An underappreciated overlap

Más información sobre el libro

The paper explores the interplay between boundary-making strategies and intergroup contact, highlighting their overlapping phenomena. It argues that both approaches, despite differing terminologies, address similar dynamics in shaping relationships between in-group and out-group members. By examining how contact between diverse groups influences the creation, alteration, or reinforcement of boundaries, the work seeks to illuminate the often overlooked connections between boundary-making and contact theory in political sociology.
