Unlike the symbolic interactionist framework, the many theories derived from symbolic interactionism, such as role theory and the versions of identity theory developed by Sheldon Stryker, [38] [39] as well as Peter Burke and colleagues, [40] [41] clearly define concepts and the relationships between them in a given context, thus allowing for ...
