| dc.description.abstract | Herbert Blumer left tlnclear the bearing of his method on substantive arguments thathemade about socialunrest, socialproblems, public opinion, race relations, andmass society. These argllments cOllldscarcelY have been grounded upon that weI/-known fundamental of his method, direct observation of ongoing social interaction. Th~ are, boneoer, consistent with another centralprinciple discussed in Blumer's essay on method empirical tests of concepts. Several of hisarticles onsubstantive concepts suggest thekindsof results that may bepursued with concept testing. | |
