Recenzii
"Dobratz, Buzzell, and Waldner masterfully present the principal themes in political sociology in ways that compel students to see how their lives are shaped by power and politics and highlights how they can reshape power relations through social networks, organizations, and social institutions."
--Robert Futrell, Professor and Chair, Sociology, University of Nevada, Las Vegas
"This book provides a comprehensive overview and very thorough treatment of the main ideas and arguments within political sociology. I especially like the authors' attention to culture, and their detailed presentation of the ways in which politics and the state frame and permeate so many elements of everyday life. Truly they will help you to see, as Antonio Gramsci noted, that all of social life is, in some way or other, political."
--Paul McLean, Professor, Sociology, Rutgers University
"Power, Politics and Society 2nd edition is a highly engaging introduction to the major theories, topics and debates within the field of political sociology. The clearly-written prose manages to combine significant breadth of coverage with accessible and intriguing examples to draw students in and demonstrate the continued value of using sociology to examine power, politics and their own lives."
