Assignment 5:
‘ Within the associative friendship, giving and receiving is minimal, and the association is superficial rather than intense ‘.
It was Alfred Schütz who recognized that there are social groups, and this is especially evident in “Equality and the Meaning Structure of the SocialWorld” of 1955. For him, a group is a set of interacting individuals. Schütz divides groups in two ways. One distinction is between voluntary groups and involuntary or existential groups. The latter are based on such things as sex, national origin, mother tongue, and race, and the former include marriage, friendship, and partnership (Schutz, 1964). Of course dealing in direct face-to-face contact our society is not totally regarded and rewarded. According to Schütz’s indirect or ‘ they-relationships ‘ make up the totality of society. Society is therefore a construct of ideal types defined according to the functions of the abstract individuals involved. (Schütz 1981 ) Multiple realities will lead to a world view within different schemes facing realities are different from each other.
