The body is a kind of “buffer zone” between outside and inside. It’s an interface between our « self » and social world. In sociology, this externality can be understood as responsible institutions for our education : family, school, amateur sport, first job, et cetera ; internality must be understood by the embodiement of its education (the body is learning and memorizing unconsciously social conducts). Sociology of body is about the embodiement of such norms. How are we internalizing these social norms ? How these norms are structuring our mind and, de facto, our perception of the world. Our class will answer to all of these questions.
