Explores sociology's double critique. This book opens with chapters on how to think sociologically; an overview of the scientific, humanistic, and critical schools of sociology; and, a detailed exposition of the critical tradition.
All sociology is implicitly critical because the sociological perspective questions and debunks what common sense takes for granted. Some sociology is explicitly critical of how the domination of states, corporations, the media, and other powerful institutions attenuate our potential for living autonomous lives in today''s world. In Critical Sociology, Buechler explores sociology''s double critique. The book opens with chapters on how to think sociologically; an overview of the scientific, humanistic, and critical schools of sociology; and a more detailed exposition of the critical tradition. He applies this critical tradition to economics, politics, and culture; to class, race, and gender; to individualism, self, and identity; and to globalization, social movements, and democracy.
