Description

Sociological Theory and the Capability Approach bridges classical and contemporary sociological theory with Amartya Sen's and Martha Nussbaum's capability approach, merging ethics and economics into a unified framework. This Routledge publication examines foundational thinkers including Hegel, Marx, Durkheim, Scheler, and Weber alongside modern theorists such as Parsons, Giddens, and Luhmann. The book identifies critical connections between sociology and the capability approach, addressing the explanatory and normative concerns shared by both traditions. Authored by Spiros Gangas, this work engages readers from sociology and capability approach disciplines, proposing a meaningful dialogue that closes the current gap between these complementary fields. Essential for scholars seeking to understand how sociological theory can inform and enhance capability-based approaches to human development and social analysis.
