Bestaan leefstijlen (nog) wel? : enkele handelingstheoretische overwegingen bij het gebruik van het stijlbegrip

Samenvatting

The concept of "lifestyle" is appearing ever more frequently in sociological discourse. Other terms, eg, youthstyle, are also being coined. However, this concept is very vague & lacks the necessary precision for exact scientific studies. The relationship between behavioral choices & lifestyle is reviewed. The all-encompassing character of lifestyle is one of its chief drawbacks, suggestive of a totalitarian mentality. M. Meeks
