Description

Society and Culture reclaims the classical heritage, provides a clear-eyed assessment of the promise of sociology in the 21st century and asks whether the `cultural turn′ has made the study of society redundant. Sociologists have objected to the rise of cultural studies on the grounds that it produces cultural relativism and lacks a stable research agenda.

This book looks at these criticisms and illustrates the relevance of a sociological perspective in the analysis of human practice.

The book argues that the classical tradition must be treated as a living tradition, rather than a period piece.

It analyzes the fundamental principles of belonging and conflict in society and provides a detailed critical survey of the principal social theories that offer solutions to the challenges of modernism.
