Description
Sociology faces troubling developments as it enters its second century in the United States.
A loss of theoretical coherence and a sense of disciplinary fragmentation, a decline in the quality of its recruits, the cooptation of its clients, a muted public voice, and sinking prestige in governmental circles-these are only a few of the trends signalling a need for renewed debate about how sociology is organized.
In this volume, some of the most authoritative voices in the field confront these conditions, offering a variety of perspectives as they challenge sociologists to self-examination.
