Classical Sociology, Paperback / softback Book

Classical Sociology Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In this book, one of the foremost sociologists of the present day, turns his gaze upon the key figures and seminal institutions in the rise of sociology.

Turner examines the work of Karl Marx, Max Weber, Karl Mannheim, Georg Simmel, Emile Durkheim and Talcott Parsons to produce a rich and authoritative perspective on the classical tradition.

He argues that classical sociology has developed on many fronts, including debates on the family, religion, the city, social stratification, generations and citizenship.

The book defends classical perspectives as a living tradition for understanding contemporary social life and demonstrates how the classical tradition produces an agenda for contemporary sociology.
