The Anthem Companion to Robert Park (eBook, ePUB)

Produktbeschreibung

The Anthem Companion to Robert Park comes to terms with Robert Park's legacy. This companion focuses largely on the work rather than the man, a major figure in American sociology during the first half of the past century, and encourages readers to consider the virtue of rethinking-and rereading-the much maligned and frequently misunderstood Park. Despite the fact that he wrote with exemplary clarity, Park's work has often been ignored by contemporary sociologists. The contributions in this companion embrace no singular response to Park, but rather present a broad range of responses, generally appreciative but also critical.
