Sociological Worlds: Comparative and Historical Readings on
Society, edited by Stephen K. Sanderson, is the first anthology for
undergraduate courses in sociology to offer a specifically
comparative and historical focus. Sanderson has brought together 34
readings which focus on the most fundamental topics in modern
macrosociology:
* preindustrial and precapitalist economies
* political systems
* the rise of capitalism, industrialism, and socialism
* race and ethnicity
* economic development and underdevelopment
* gender relations
* stratification systems
* educational systems
The readings are drawn from the works of many of macrosociology's
most prominent thinkers and represent an interdisciplinary array of
viewpoints, combining sociology with anthropology, economics, and
political science. Thought-provoking introductions to each section
and each article guide the reader and ease instruction by
identifying and explaining central issues, key concepts, and
relationships among topics. This adds internal cohesiveness and
structure to the readings.
