The dwarf, the disfigured, the blind man, the homosexual, the ex-mental patient and the member of a racial or religious minority all share one characteristic: they are all socially "abnormal", and therefore in danger of being considered less then human. Whether ordinary people react by rejection, by over-hearty acceptance or by plain embarressment, their main concern is with such an individual's deviance, not with the whole of his personality. "Stigma" is a study of situations where normal and abnormal meet, and of the ways in which a stigmatized person can develop a more positive social and personal identity.

Condition: Bueno. : En 'Estigma: Notas sobre la gestión de la identidad deteriorada', Erving Goffman explora las complejas dinámicas sociales que rodean a las personas estigmatizadas. A través de un análisis profundo, Goffman examina cómo la sociedad construye y perpetúa el estigma, y cómo los individuos que lo sufren gestionan su identidad en un mundo que a menudo los margina. Este libro ofrece una perspectiva reveladora sobre la interacción entre lo 'normal' y lo 'anormal', y cómo las personas estigmatizadas pueden desarrollar una identidad social y personal más positiva.
