We Are Getting Mellow: Self and Reflexivity in High School Reunions in the United States

Abstract

dc:description

The high school reunion is a popular event throughout the United States, cutting across locality and age. It is commonly thought of as a light-hearted social occasion or an exercise in nostalgia that has little significance in participants' lives. It is not. The high school reunion is a rich and often poignant experience for many Americans.
