Explorations in Classical Sociological Theory

Zusatztext

<p>Praised for its conversational tone, personal examples, and helpful pedagogical tools, the<strong>Fourth Edition</strong> of<strong>Explorations in Classical Sociological Theory: Seeing the Social World</strong>is organized around the modern ideas of progress, knowledge, and democracy. With this historical thread woven throughout the chapters, the book presents a diverse selection of major classical theorists including Marx, Spencer, Durkheim, Weber, Mead, Simmel, Martineau, Gilman, Douglass, Du Bois, Parsons, and the Frankfurt School. Kenneth Allan and new co-author Sarah Daynes focus on the specific views of each theorist, rather than schools of thought, and highlight modernity and postmodernity to help contemporary readers understand how classical sociological theory applies to their lives.  </p>
