A world-class introduction to the historical and continuing impact
of classical theory on sociological debate The latest edition of
Classical Sociological Theory offers students a definitive guide to
the theoretical foundations of sociology and the continuing impact
of the ideas explored by early theorists, including Marx, Durkheim,
Weber, Mead, Simmel, Freud, Du Bois, Adorno, Marcuse, Parsons, and
Merton. The prestigious editors have integrated several readings on
the most influential theories arising out of the Enlightenment era
and the work of de Tocqueville. Readers are introduced to seminal
works in classical sociological theory by way of editorial
introductions that lend historical and intellectual perspective to
the included readings. The readings themselves have been selected
based on their combinations of theoretical sophistication and
accessibility. From analyses of self and society to examinations of
critical theory and structural-functional analysis, Classical
Sociological Theory remains the gold standard in classical theory
readers. The Fourth Edition of this widely taught book includes:
Selections that trace the history of classical sociological theory,
from its undisciplined roots to its modern influence on
contemporary sociological debate Readings describing the
"pre-history" of sociology, including ideas from the Enlightenment
and de Tocqueville Editorial introductions that place selected
works firmly in their intellectual, philosophical, and historical
contexts for the benefit of the student A distinguished and
scholarly team of editors with a wide and deep range of expertise
Perfect for undergraduate and graduate students of social and
sociological theory, Classical Sociological Theory is also a
thought-provoking resource ideal for use in courses taught in human
geography, anthropology, criminology, and urban studies programs.
