Global Sociology, Third Edition Description

Global Sociology 3 Edition “This new edition is an outstandingupdate of what I believe to be the best textbook for introducing undergraduatesto global sociology. With a rich array of new examples, clear definitions of conceptsand crisp theoretical summaries, it offers students a vision for participatingas engaged citizens in a diverse, interdependent and sustainable world.”—Paul Lubeck, University of California, Santa Cruz “Just think for a moment of the ‘globalevents’ that are changing the world: 9/11, the financial crisis, climatechange, Fukushima, the Arab Spring. They all came by total surprise, whichmeans they are beyond our normal sociological categories and global in theirscope and implications. That’s the reason why students and professors ofsociology more than ever need the information in and inspiration from GlobalSociology.” —Ulrich Beck, University of Munich The first, pioneering editions of GlobalSociology put global issues at the heart of sociological discussion. Muchhas changed in the world since then; recessions, revolutions, social media, andnew migration networks have developed as causes and symptoms of an increasinglyglobal society. This new edition is fully updated toexplore just how these global issues can help us to understand sociology in ourworld today. Making clear connections between everyday experiences and globalprocesses at each step, the third edition carefully guides readers throughessential and cutting-edge topics in the discipline, from family and feminismto environment and economy. Features such as biography boxes on key thinkers inthe field, a thorough glossary, and review questions introduce and reinforcethe book’s core ideas. With clear writing and infectious enthusiasm for itstopic, Global Sociology remains the authority on global issues insociology for students at a variety of skill levels.
