Pragmatic Humanism

On the Nature and Value of Sociological Knowledge

Beschreibung

This book suggests that sociology's real value can only be disclosed by replacing its image as a discipline aimed towards disinterested social enlightenment with an image of itself as a practice both dependent upon, and at its best self-consciously aimed towards, human ends and imperatives.
