The dwarf, the disfigured, the blind man, the homosexual, the ex-mental patient and the member of a racial or religious minority all share one characteristic: they are all socially "abnormal", and therefore in danger of being considered less then human. Whether ordinary people react by rejection, by over-hearty acceptance or by plain embarressment, their main concern is with such an individual's deviance, not with the whole of his personality. "Stigma" is a study of situations where normal and abnormal meet, and of the ways in which a stigmatized person can develop a more positive social and personal identity.

Stigma is an illuminating excursion into the situation of persons who are unable to conform to standards that society calls normal. Disqualified from full social acceptance, they are stigmatized individuals.
Erving Goffman (1922-1982) was one of the most influential sociologists of the twentieth century. He was Benjamin Franklin Professor of Anthropology and Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania.

Condition: Bueno. : En 'Estigma: Notas sobre la gestión de la identidad deteriorada', Erving Goffman explora las complejas dinámicas sociales que rodean a las personas estigmatizadas. A través de un análisis profundo, Goffman examina cómo la sociedad construye y perpetúa el estigma, y cómo los individuos que lo sufren gestionan su identidad en un mundo que a menudo los margina. Este libro ofrece una perspectiva reveladora sobre la interacción entre lo 'normal' y lo 'anormal', y cómo las personas estigmatizadas pueden desarrollar una identidad social y personal más positiva.
