Description

Explore the foundational themes of political sociology in this first volume from Routledge. This collection examines how the discipline has developed through key concepts such as state formation, legitimation, power, regulation, and inequality. The selection reflects a modern shift in the field, moving beyond the traditional focus on the nation-state and simple models of power based on explicit agendas. Readers will find a mix of highly influential works and essential contributions that shaped the study of social structures and political dynamics. This volume includes major intellectual contributions from thinkers like Elias on violence, Habermas on the legitimation crisis, and Lukes on power. It serves as an essential resource for understanding both standard theories and less well-known works that define the current landscape of political sociology.
