Description
"Drawing on studies of social class, crime and deviance, education, work in bureaucracies, and religious and political divides, this "Very Short Introduction" examines the foundation principles of sociology by considering how the self is shaped by society, and vice versa. In this new edition, Steve Bruce clarifies the nature of the discipline. Championing the 'science' in social science, he argues that, while new agendas and ideas are shaping sociology, objective, value-neutral social analysis is not only possible but necessary"--,Provided by publisher.
