Contemporary Sociological Theory

Beschreibung

CONTEMPORARY SOCIOLOGICAL THEORY Contemporary Sociological Theory provides a definitive guide to current theoretical perspectives for sociology and the wider social sciences. This updated anthology, now in its fourth edition, includes thematic sections on symbolic interactionism, institutions, power, inequality and modernity as well as debates on contemporary social crises and structuralism. The new edition encompasses some of the deepest selections available on key contemporary authors such as Foucault, Habermas, and Bourdieu, and it is fully revised with extensive additions on issues of race, gender, difference and??intersectionality, and lively new introductory material throughout. With extensive references to further readings and resources, Contemporary Sociological Theory, Fourth Edition is an invaluable primary text for undergraduate courses in social and sociological theory, and an excellent supplement for courses in wider social sciences programs including human geography, anthropology, criminology, and urban studies.
