Description
This volume explores the leading edge of theoretical development in sociology between 1972 and 1989. It contains the work of some of the leading sociological theorists, presents extensions or reformulations of existing theories and some wholly new theories. The editors particularly wish to show the range of middle-range theory - theory orientated towards empirical knowledge of specific domains as opposed to overarching frameworks for all sociology.
