408304 VU Selected Topics in Sociology: Total Institutions - Greedy Institutions: On the Change of all-encompassing Access to the Individual

Goffman’s concept of total institutions stimulated social processes of institutional criticism. Coser’s work regarding greedy institutions is less well known. Nevertheless, both authors address a potentially all-encompassing access to individuals. In contemporary society, one can observe diverse manifestations of such accesses: prisons, retirement homes, inpatient housing for people with disabilities, monasteries, psychiatric institutions, refugee homes and others can, on a broader scale, more or less be characterized by structural features of total institutions. Features of greedy institutions can be observed within squad facilities in top-class sports, spiritual-fundamentalist movements, extremist groups, as well as in companies or in science and art.
This lecture aims to examine manifestations of all-encompassing access to individuals in social change theoretically and empirically.
