Nightlife: social sciences at night
Keywords:
Ciencias sociales, Vida nocturna, InvestigaciónSynopsis
Although defining the city, nightlife was of little interest when it came to developing a social science that had it as its object. Much of urban sociology and anthropology focuses on social processes that occur in daylight, and when they focus on nighttime activities, such as music and dancing, “the night” appears as the backdrop for the practices being analyzed. This book delves into this area of vacancy when it takes night as a central phenomenon of human experience as its starting point. Throughout the text, a definition of night as a time without sunlight, linked to the rotation of the planet, is set aside in favor of a definition that emphasizes the spatial and relational dimension of people, things, and consumption.
