Subject: RE: Sociology or epistemology?And games.


It is too easy to deploy the games analogy for social life without taking
accout of this - that to think of some action as part of a game is to treat
it as part of bounded activity: in social life activity is seamless.  Not
that games are truly bounded but thinking of them as games implies
boundary.
