Through a collection of carefully selected articles, Political
Sociology: Readings on Power, Politics, State, and Society helps
students analyze and understand events in the political and social
world through the lens of power structures and the distribution of
power in society. Chapter 1 examines the components of a strong
civic culture. Chapter 2 discusses the processes of elite formation
in major industrialized countries like the United States, Germany,
France, Britain, and Japan. Chapter 3 examines whether presidents
are held responsible for the mistakes of their agencies and what
the media's role is in shaping that responsibility. In Chapter 4,
readers learn about the relations between states and women from the
sociological perspectives of democracy and development. Additional
chapters address racial politics in the Missouri Bootheel region;
how big technology can serve as a symbol of state power, wealth,
and political authority; and the concept of false consciousness and
its impact on the lives of individuals. The final chapter discusses
the history of voter inequality and voter suppression. Thoroughly
modern in approach, Political Sociology is an exemplary resource
for courses in the social sciences.
