Anotace:	Understanding Classical Sociology is a lucid examination of the pivotal theories of Marx, Weber and Durkheim. Arguing that their ideas have shaped the development of the discipline, this accessible book demonstrates the continuing relevance of these three figures to contemporary sociology. The authors show how the classical apparatus is still in use, even though it is being directed in new ways in response to the changing character of society. The text emphasizes the continuities in modern sociological thought, and indeed argues that many of the ideas of postmodern thinkers were anticipated by classical theorists. At the same time it acknowledges that these key thinkers represent different ways of formulating the problem of order, which is sociology's central focus. An introductory section outlines the main elements of the sociological tradition and highlights, in particular, its roots in the Enlightenment. Subsequent chapters offer a detailed, sharply focused account of the main ideas of each writer, connecting them with more recent sociological theories and approaches. Written with the needs of undergraduates in mind, this book will be essential reading for students in sociology and social theory.
