Abstract
Human sociality is most notably embodied in implemented practices of interpersonal interaction. At the same time, the social nature of human beings is open for cultural influences. This book inspects the foundations of human sociality theoretically drawing on recent debates in sociology, anthropology, and linguistics, and empirically by the example of the Wolof village in Northwestern Senegal.
