'An alluvial goldfield of social theorists - nuggets lying around all over the place.'
Bob Connell
Who's who in the social theory zoo? This book introduces some of the leading social theorists in short, lively entries by leading Australian scholars. Social Theory covers thinkers from Althusser to Williams, by locals from Alexander to Yeatman.
For beginner and enthusiast alike, it gives a sense of the state of the art in classical and modern social theory.
Social Theory is an indispensable reference for undergraduates, postgraduates, academics and anyone else interested in the ideas behind social and political theory and cultural studies today.
Peter Beilharz is a lecturer in the Department of Sociology at La Trobe University, Melbourne, co-founder and co-editor of the political and social theory journal Thesis Eleven and co-author of Arguing about the Welfare State.
