Abstract: There are three basic theories in sociology. First functionalism and others are conflict perspective and symbolic interactionism. While the first two theories focus on large social events, symbolic interaction draws the attention to the details of daily life and interaction between individuals. According to the symbolic interaction theory, it is necessary to look at the interaction of the members of that society with one another in order to understand a society. But we can't talk about a uniform model of interaction. Humans are not - as the behaviorists. state semi-robotical creatures who simply react to stimuli. Behaviorists make a very important mistake at this point and skip the commentary. However, first, people make an interpretation related to behavior of the collocutor and then react. Although they are exposed to the same stimuli, reactions of individuals can be very different from each other because of their interpretation related to stimuli. In this article, ‘‘Our Fellow Townsman’’ story written by Aziz Nesin is evaluated in terms of symbolic interaction theory.
