Synopsis: |
This textbook introduces debates about the nature and meaning of social change. The authors offer a new way of thinking about the processes of change, reconsidering the roles played by time and space. The particular changes explored range from radical transitions from one kind of society to another, to less dramatic shifts in social interaction and social organisation. The text is thoroughly up-to-date, covering in detail the transformations in social relations associated with post-colonialism, the information society, city life, new communication forms, intimacy and governing the self. Each chapter is written by an author well known in their field and supported by readings that present a wide range of international case studies. These readings encourage students to engage with social and cultural documents as evidence of social change, developing their critical and analytical skills. |
