Abstract

There has been little sociological research on work at the sensory level and the result is a largely missing foundational link in the chain of analysis connecting the phenomenological practices of doing work with theories about work. As a first step towards remedying this lacuna the article portrays the sensory work of movement, seeing, hearing, smelling and touching manifested by the occupation of infantryman.
