The Governors Drinkhouse: Exploring the Margins of Individual Submarines in a Manned Kingdom


Abstract

This study examines the social dimensions of the Governors Drinkhouse, a unique gathering place for submariners in a manned kingdom. Drawing on ethnographic data collected through participant observation, interviews, and archival research, this paper illuminates the marginal spaces of individual submarines within this community. The analysis reveals that the Drinkhouse serves as a site where individuals negotiate their place within the larger social order of the submarine fleet, as well as a space for cultivating personal relationships and crafting collective identities. Through the exploration of the Governors Drinkhouse, this paper contributes to our understanding of how individuals navigate the complexities of social life within tightly-knit communities, and sheds light on the diverse ways in which people create meaning and forge relationships in challenging environments.
