Description

In this volume, leading social theorists address the broad ranging issues facing society at the end of the twentieth century, as our social environment changes from being based on primary units such as families and ethnicities and our physical environment becomes increasingly man-made. Examining recent changes in technology and social organization, the authors show how social theory can inform the construction of social organization and help provide avenues of future social development.
