Seminal Sociological Writings by Richard Altschuler Pdf

This book fills a void by assembling seminal writings from many original works that created the “science of society” — by Auguste Comte, Émile Durkheim, Karl Marx, Herbert Spencer, George Herbert Mead, Ferdinand Tönnies, Georg Simmel, Thorsten Veblen, Max Weber, and other “founding fathers” of sociology. The seminal writings in this anthology originally appeared in articles and books published from the mid 19th century to the early 20th century. They are, therefore, primary source documents that allow modern students to see how the authors introduced the paradigm-changing constructs that shattered earlier perceptions of reality. They include social class, conspicuous consumption, division of labor, collective consciousness, social self, survival of the fittest, anomie, culture lag, charisma, social solidarity, and other concepts that dominate how social scientists today think about and study human relationships, institutions, societies, and cultures. In addition to allowing students to experience the great theorists’ thoughts and reasoning processes directly, these primary source documents provide an invaluable research resource because they were written by the theorists in the “first person,” as they were undergoing their groundbreaking theoretical insights and discoveries, and while they were recording, reflecting on, witnessing, and living through the phenomena that engaged them as they occurred. For these reasons and more, Seminal Sociological Writings: From Comte to Weber is an important resource that can serve as either a primary or ancillary text in courses on theory, and will enlighten all scholars and laypersons interested in the birth and development of the social sciences.

Essays in Sociological Theory by Talcott Parsons Pdf

Talcott Parsons needs little introduction to anyone acquainted with the literature of sociology. Few men have dominated their fields so much as Dr. Parsons does his. In this collection of nineteen essays, Dr. Parsons focuses his attention on subjects ranging from the social structure of Japan to propaganda and social control, from sociological aspects of Fascist movements to the place of psychoanalysis in society. Also dealt with are such topics as: The role of ideas in social action, the motivation of economic activities, American social structure, social classes and class conflict, and the prospects for contemporary sociological theory. The whole body of essays presented here belongs in the broad field of "application" of sociological theory. It stands in the line of scientific development of the most advanced techniques for sociological investigation and evaluation of data.

Seminal Sociological Writings, Volume 2 by Richard Altschuler Pdf

The writings of Harriet Martineau and W.E.B. Du Bois—generally known as the first woman and black founders of sociology—bookend this rich collection of pioneering works that created “the science of society.” The sixteen writings in this anthology originally appeared in articles and books published from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. They are, therefore, primary source documents that allow modern readers to see how the authors introduced their paradigm-changing concepts that shattered earlier perceptions of society—concepts such as “culture lag,” “collective bargaining,” “human ecology,” “iron law of oligarchy,” and “class conflict,” which still largely influence the way twenty-first century social scientists think about and study human relationships, institutions, societies, and cultures. Along with the writings of Martineau and Du Bois, this volume features original works by other major founders of sociology, including Beatrice Webb, Vilfredo Pareto, Jane Addams, Robert Michels, William F. Ogburn, Robert E. Park, Friedrich Engels, Henry Sumner Maine, Walter Bagehot, Ludwig Gumplowicz, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Albion Small, Gustav Ratzenhofer, Ernest Burgess, and Franz Oppenheimer. The groundbreaking writings in this anthology, which is a companion volume to Seminal Sociological Writings: From Auguste Comte to Max Weber (2010), can serve as either a primary or ancillary text in courses on the history of sociology and sociological theory. It will also enlighten all individuals interested in the birth and development of the social sciences.

Sociological Objects by Geoff Cooper,Andrew King,Ruth Rettie Pdf

What are the aims of sociology? What are its objects of study? How relevant is the classical tradition to the practice of sociology today? This volume brings together internationally renowned and new scholars to consider the changing relationship between contemporary and classical sociology. Arguing that recent historical and theoretical developments make reconsideration timely, it suggests that whilst the classical tradition has a continuing pertinence, it is inevitably subject to ongoing reconfiguration. Assessing the explanatory value of classical and contemporary forms of sociology, interrogating social theory as both a form of explanation and a mode of practice, and considering the possible consequences for the discipline of questions about its subject matter, Sociological Objects steers a course between assertions about radical epistemological breaks on the one hand, and reverence for the classical tradition on the other. Rather, it emphasizes the value of reworking, reconsidering and reconfiguring sociological thought.

Sociological Impressionism (Routledge Revivals) by David Frisby Pdf

When Sociological Impressionism was first published in 1981, it was the first comprehensive study on Simmel’s social theory to appear in English since 1925. A pioneering work, it did much to bring about the rediscovery of Georg Simmel as one of the key sociologists of the twentieth century. David Frisby provides a provocative introduction to aspects of Simmel’s social theory, seriously challenging many interpretations of his work, most notably the view that Simmel produced a formal sociology. By drawing on many little-known essays and pieces by Simmel and his contemporaries, the book locates him within the social and intellectual milieu in which he was working. This is a reissue of the second edition, published in 1992, which includes a new afterword confronting critical responses to the first edition. This is an important work, which will be of interest to students of sociology and social philosophy in Germany in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
