Description

Professing Sociology captures the intellectual foundations and scope of sociology during a period of widespread interest and public funding. Written by Irving Louis Horowitz, a leader of the new sociology movement in the late 1960s, this Routledge volume examines the field's post-World War II development as both a scientific discipline and profession. The book reveals critical trends shaping sociology and includes Horowitz's most significant writings on the subject. Divided into three main sections, it traces the inner life and evolution of the discipline, offering essential insights into how sociology emerged and developed as a professional field during a transformative era in academic history.

Key Features

Irving Louis Horowitz provides authoritative analysis of sociology's development as a scientific discipline and profession in the post-World War II period.

The book is organised into three main sections that systematically examine the life cycle and intellectual foundations of the sociological field.

Professing Sociology captures the nature and intensity of sociology's intellectual scope during the era of widespread public interest and funding in the late 1960s.

This Routledge publication includes the author's most significant writings on critical trends that shaped and continue to influence the field of sociology.
