Social Theory and Sociology: The Classics and Beyond

* Key feature is that this volume brings together a number of radically diverse view points on a question of great importance - Does what has gone on under the heading "Social Theory" have any relevance today - Contributors are representatives of different traditions, genorations and national backgrounds and view points are radically different/diverse - from rational choice theorist to cultural studies analysts.
* Editoral introductions contextualise each part: Full Bibliographical support directs the reader to further study.
