INTERACTION

Manuel Delgado

Interaction is reciprocal influence of an individual on the actions of another person or persons when immediately physically present, thereby turning what was a spatial fact into a social event. Interaction is founded on the obligation of those co-present as they make themselves mutually accessible and negotiate the terms according to which a given situation is to take place. Simple physical co-presence becomes interaction at the very moment in which the minimum threshold of a social nucleus is established, the reciprocally granted and recognised possibility of giving life to, of bringing forth, a minimum social organisation. Interaction is founded on the openness of subjects to communication and to the acceptance of its rules.
