Informal sociability and semiotics of spaces. Some reflexions on method

Abstract

Despite the fact that, as this article attempts to demonstrate, the concept of sociability is aware at all its informal manifestations, compared to more formalized world of associations formally regulated and statues, the fact is that only they start now to explore both the historical manifestations of informal sociability as its derivations in the logic and order of the spaces of historical action. This work proposes to re-examine the spatial organization taking advantage both the perspective of informal sociability as the semiotic perspective, and tried to incorporate to historical discourse the research lines opened since the French and Anglo-Saxon historiography, some lines of geography, anthropology of space, or sociological tradition.
