How Might We Conceive of Face-To-Face and Social-Psychological Levels of Analysis

question 7

Essay

How might we conceive of face-to-face and social-psychological levels of analysis as a micro level of analysis? By doing so, do we complicate our demarcation of the meso level of analysis? Put differently, can we define a clear continuum from micro to macro or is the meso always relative to other levels of analysis as defined by their contexts?
