Classical and Contemporary Sociological Theory: Text and Readings
provides students with the best of both worlds-carefully-edited
excerpts from the original works of sociology's key theorists
accompanied by an analytical framework that discusses the lives,
ideas, and historical circumstances of each theorist. This unique
format enables students to examine, compare, and contrast each
theorist's major themes and concepts. In the Fourth Edition of this
bestseller, examples from contemporary life and a rich variety of
updated pedagogical tools (tables, figures, photographs, discussion
questions,) illuminate complex ideas. NEW TO THIS EDITION: The
overarching theoretical framework has been expanded to further help
students understand, compare, and contrast the readings. Additional
discussion of the Enlightenment thinkers, such as Locke, Rousseau,
Hume, Kant, Hobbes, Wollstonecraft, demonstrates how these thinkers
shaped the core theoretical questions that guide sociological
inquiry to this day. A new primary source reading from theorist
Ulrich Beck enables students to analyze climate change from a
sociological perspective. A new reading from Talcott Parsons gives
students a better understanding of social action theory and
structural functionalism. Updated examples, statistics and visuals
tie theory to current events.
