Conflict, Order and Action, 3rd Edition: Readings in Sociology

Editat de Ed Ksenych, David Liu
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 mai 2001
This engaging collection of classic and contemporary readings is designed to complement introductory sociology texts by offering students a lively variety of examples of the practice of sociological inquiry.

The editors bring together selections of seminal sociological thought, current North American formulations of the sociological imagination, as well as applications of sociology to contemporary topics and issues with a Canadian focus.

The aim of the reader is to provide selections that are compelling, relatively accessible, and reflect the diversity of theoretical approaches and methodologies that constitute sociological inquiry. It provides rich supplementary resource material for the main topics usually taken up in introductory courses: the sociological perspective, culture, action and interaction, socialization, work and the economy, social inequality, gender relations, family, deviance and social control, and social change. In addition, the reader is an excellent resource for courses with fieldwork assignments.

Conflict, Order & Action opens the door for both student and teacher to begin to explore their own interconnectedness in the web of social relations and meanings we call modern society.
