Two concepts which try to explain how we interact with others.
There are two
types of primary frameworks, natural and social. The natural frameworks are
“purely physical”, for example the state of the weather as given in a report (vgl.
Goffman.1986. S.26)
The social
frameworks you can also call “guided doings”. “This doings subject the doer to
“standards”, to social appraisal of his action based on its honesty,
efficiency, economy, safety, elegance, tactfulness, good taste, and so forth” (Goffman.1986. S.26)
Primary frameworks
of a special social group constitute a central element of its culture. They are
important to emerge concerning classes of schemata and the relations of these
classes to one another. (vgl. Goffman. 1986. S.27)
