Rezension

"The New Blackwell Companion to Social Theory is aptly titled since it involves a dramatic revision and updating of the previous volume. It is an excellent overview of the state of social theory with strong essays written, in the main, by many of the world's leading social theorists. An indispensable resource for anyone interested in social theory."
George Ritzer, University if Maryland
 
"Comprehensive and engaging, this new companion will help students and other readers understand both the changing agendas and the core content of social theory."
Craig Calhoun, New York University
