social life presents an almost endless variety of finely distinguishable situations an quite an array of grossly different ones. It contains arenas of continous competitions. It proceeds in a context of ever-shifting set of persons, changing moments in time, altering situations and partially improvised interactions. established rulez, customs, and symbolic frameworks exists, but they operate in the precence of areas of indeterminacy, of ambiguity, of uncertaninty, and manipulability.
Order never fully takes over, nor could it.
Common symbols, customary behaviours, role expectations, rules categories, ideas and ideologies, rituals and formalities shared by actors do exist and frame mutual communication and action.
Fixing and framing of social reality is itself a process or a set of process.
Structure is ever the ever-to-be repeated achivement of regularization.
However tight the rules, in their application there is always a certain range of maneuver, of openess, of choice, of interpretation,, af alteration, of tampering, of reversing, of transforming. (Moore)
