Key Concepts in Classical Social Theory

A concise and student-friendly companion to a subject that's central to sociology degrees, and yet can often seem dense and impenetrable to undergraduates approaching the classics for the first time.

"I think this will prove to be a very useful text for undergraduate students. Alex Law has produced a comprehensive list of key classical social theory concepts and provides an accessible account of the meaning of central terms, their place in the work of the classical analysts considered and the contemporary significance of their ideas. In addition he has offered useful additional reading guidance from which students will derive considerable benefit."
- Barry Smart, University of Portsmouth
