The Stranger GEORG SIMMEL

The Stranger GEORG SIMMEL
-Simmel's essay describes:

A) the social process of exclusion and avoidance of things and people different from the cultural norm
B) the stages of acquaintanceship: awareness, identification, exploration, normalization, inclusion, and attachment
C) the seemingly contradictory nature of a social type or character who can be both near and remote, different and similar, a part of the group yet apart from it
D) the way we detach ourselves from situations and events that threaten our sense of self-i.e. the ability to avoid being drawn into problematic scenes by acting as if we are invisible
5) The My Lai Massacre: A Crime of Obedience? (from Crimes of Obedience: Toward a Social Psychology of Authority and Responsibility) HERBERT C. KELMAN and V. LEE HAMILTON
