Social Re-membering Theory and the Human Exigency of Love

Thu, November 15, 9:30 to 10:45am, Chicago Hilton, Floor: Fifth Floor, Conference Room 5F

Abstract

Work in communication presents many visions of how our social world operates, how we fit into this world and the role communication plays in this world. I argue for a vision that highlights choices and consequences. In doing so, I focus on one fundamental mode of signification in human life, social re-membering. Social re-membering or establishing or reestablishing relationships of identification, functions to overcome isolation in and through various manifestations of love.
