Agency in instructed action, or the order in motion : a dance lesson for the students of religions
Original language description
My presentation is based on an ethnographic study of the work of contemporary dancers during the improvisation project. My research project about dance improvisation was inspired by John Law's idea and practice of studying order through the ordering practices (1994). Through the course of my fieldwork I came to appreciate ? apart from all excellent sociological job done by "my" dancers themselves ? Harold Garfinkel's (2002) repertoire to study instructed action. On the ground of this project and these theoretical inspirations I would like to speak about two issues: (1) Instructed action is one where agency (and authority) seems to be clearly localized, yet it is not. To control the number and sort of actors involved demands unending flow of hard work.If this is the case, then what can we, in the Study of Religion, learn as a lesson in studying "religious" norms? What agency is connected with them? (2) Some say that the Study of Religions is in crisis (Horyna 2011), and I agree.
