This thoroughly revised and updated third edition provides an
expanded analysis of the nature and future of sociological theory.
It offers new sections on feminist, post-colonial, and critical
race theories, as well as a discussion of theories of system,
structure and complexity. John Scott paints an overview of early
developments in sociological thinking, before exploring the
principal theorists and theoretical approaches of the twentieth and
twenty-first centuries. A review of general theory sets the scene
for the strong narrative on contention and convergence that is
developed throughout the book. Scott argues that the works of the
theorists considered provide the basis for a vibrant future for
understanding sociology as a cooperative intellectual venture.
Analysing emerging debates on modernity and post-modernity, this
book looks towards the development and future of theorising in
sociology. Lively and accessible in its approach, Sociological
Theory will be an essential guide for scholars and students of
sociology and sociological theory seeking clear discussions and
critical reflections on theoretical ideas.
