Social Theory: A Textbook 1st edition
Bagge Laustsen, Carsten (Aarhus University, Denmark)
This textbook offers a new approach to understanding social theory. Framed around paired theoretical perspectives on a series of sociological problems, the book shows how distinctive viewpoints shed light on different facets of social phenomena. The book includes sociology?s "founding fathers", major 20th-century thinkers and recent voices such as Butler and Zizek. Philosophically grounded and focused on interpretation and analysis, the book provides a clear understanding of theory?s scope while developing students? skills in evaluating, applying and comparing theories.
