On countless playgrounds each day, girls are at work crafting intricate social arrangements through language and embodied action. In this ground-breaking ethnography, the interactions of girls of diverse ethnicities and social classes show that rather than avoiding conflict, they actively seek it out, challenging the notion that girls are inherently supportive of each other. The Hidden Life of Girls documents the language practices and interactive rituals used not only to sanction friends who violate social norms, but also to bully younger girls and those regarded as social outcasts. This volume will not only provide a clearer picture of children's worlds, but will also help guide future policy and intervention strategies in schools.
"It is impressive how Goodwin entwines an enormous breadth ofliterature from anthropology, sociology, education and linguisticsinto a systematic and persuasive explication of the linguistic andsocial practices recorded.... Highly recommendable." (Discourse& Society, May 2008)
" The book offers both rich and rigorous ways of lookingat children's naturally situated conduct that speak(s) to largerconcerns of social science research." "It is clearly of greatvalue to students of language and social interaction, interpersonalcommunication scholars, and researchers concerned with thedevelopment of communication competence or with groupprocesses..." (International Journal ofCommunication)
"This book is a gold-mine. It is a rich source of data foranyone who is interested in how embodiment actually works inpractice and who needs to understand, therefore, how socialcategories are not pre-existing structures." (Journal of theRoyal Anthropological Institute, December 2008)
"Goodwin has offered scholars an innovative, interdisciplinaryand very meticulously articulated piece of work." (Journal ofSociolinguistics, November 2008)
"A powerful [and] provocative read... Highlyrecommended" (Choice)
"Hidden Life develops into an engrossing read ... .Oneof Hidden Life's strengths is Goodwin's diverse sampleof Latino, Asian, African American, and Caucasian girls."(Feminist Collections)
"Rich analysis ... .Full of rich and diverse data... and important policy recommendations. Shines a bright lighton the complexity ... of preadolescent girls." (SexRoles)"This fascinating and important book gives us a rarely seen insideperspective on the dynamics of girls' social negotiation,contestation, and hierarchy. Critically addressing keymisrepresentations and omissions of children's life-worlds inprevious scholarship, Goodwin provides a much-needed counterpointto that research and puts girls' experiences squarely at the centerof her analysis."
-Mary Bucholtz, University of California, SantaBarbara
"As she did with He-Said-She-Said in 1990, in this bookGoodwin sets a new standard for the ethnographic study of socialinteraction. As the title suggests, standard techniques of thesocial sciences leave much of girls' social life hidden from viewand insulated from analysis. Goodwin's book offers an importantcorrective: Through a focus on the actual practices of talk andembodied conduct, Goodwin shows how in constructing thehierarchies, divisions, and exclusions constitutive of their socialgroups, these girls define their own moral order."
