Primes

• Liminality
  • Not all liminal phases involve ritual (e.g., some organizational transitions); not all rituals mark liminality (e.g., celebratory affirmations of existing status). Not permanent marginality. A person stuck in a between-state indefinitely (long-term undocumented migrants, chronic "emerging adults" without transition to adulthood) experiences protracted or failed liminality, which is structurally distinct — the community has not provided or honored the reaggregation phase
