Titre : Essential concepts in sociology Type de document : Livre Auteurs : Anthony GIDDENS, Auteur ; Philip W. SUTTON, Auteur Editeur : POLITY PRESS Année de publication : 2017 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-5095-1667-4 Prix : 21 EUR Note générale : Bibliogr. en fin de chap. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Management SOCIOLOGIE Résumé : Social life is in a constant process of change, and sociology cannot afford to stand still. Sociology today is theoretically diverse, covers a huge range of subjects and draws on a broad array of research methods. Central to this endeavour is the use of core concepts and ideas which allow sociologists to make sense of societies, though our understanding of these concepts is constantly evolving and changing. This clear and jargon-free book introduces a careful selection of essential concepts that have helped to shape sociology, and others that continue to do so. Going beyond brief, dictionary-style definitions, Anthony Giddens and Philip W. Sutton provide an extended discussion of each concept which sets it into historical and theoretical context, explores its main meanings in use, introduces some relevant criticisms, and points readers to its ongoing development in contemporary research and theorizing. Organized in ten thematic sections, the book offers a portrait of sociology through its essential concepts ranging from capitalism, identity and deviance to citizenship, the environment and intersectionality. It will be essential reading for all those new to sociology, as well as those seeking a reliable route map for a rapidly changing world.

Turbulent and mighty continent / Anthony GIDDENS / POLITY PRESS (2014)

Titre : Turbulent and mighty continent : what future for Europe? Type de document : Livre Auteurs : Anthony GIDDENS Mention d'édition : Revised and updated revision Editeur : POLITY PRESS Année de publication : 2014 Importance : IX, 247 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7456-8097-2 Prix : 15 EUR Note générale : Index. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Management EUROPE Résumé : A "United States of Europe", Winston Churchill proposed in 1946, could "as if by a miracle transform" that "turbulent and mighty continent". "In this way only", he continued, "will hundreds of millions of toilers be able to regain the simple joys and hopes which make life worth living". Today, nearly seventy years later, over 500 million people live in the member states of the European Union a greater number than in any other political community save for China and India. The currency of the Union, the euro, is used in economic transactions world–wide. Yet the EU is mired in the greatest crisis of its history, one that threatens its very existence as an entity able to have an impact upon world affairs. Europe no longer seems so mighty, instead but faces the threat of becoming an irrelevant backwater or, worse, once again the scene of turbulent conflicts. Divisions are arising all over Europe, while the popularity of the Union sinks. How can this situation be turned around? Now published as a revised and updated paperback that takes account of the May 2014 elections to the European Parliament, Turbulent and Mighty Continent makes a powerful case for a far–reaching and fundamental renewal of the European project as a whole.

Glossaire Langues : Français (fre) Langues originales : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Management CHANGEMENT SOCIAL ; PHILOSOPHIE ; THEORIE ; SCIENCES HUMAINES ET SOCIALES Résumé : « Reconnaître le caractère multidimensionnel de la modernité implique de rompre avec quelques-unes des théories du changement social les plus profondément ancrées dans les sciences sociales. Dans le présent volume, je discute la logique de ces théories sur un mode abstrait, mais ce travail conceptuel et critique n’est que le point de départ d’une entreprise plus ambitieuse qui renvoie à une préoccupation d’ordre empirique, celle de parvenir à réinterpréter la nature même de la modernité.
