Published in 1999, this book is an exploration of the life and work
of American sociologist Alvin W. Gouldner. Gouldner's life and
contribution to legal theory is a case study in the limits of
critical, self-reflexive inquiry. Hegel's dialect is a major theme
running throughout Gouldner's work, and, even throughout his life,
Gouldner himself seemed trapped in the unfolding of the spirit
through three distinct stages: 1945-1960 - thesis; 1960-1970 -
antithesis; and 1970-1980 - synthesis or new thesis. Implications
for creating a reflexive critical sociology in Gouldner's image are
discussed.
