A Comprehensive Sociological Dictionary - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The use of this dictionary is designed to help students master the vocabulary used in the scientific discipline of sociology. I believe that an enhanced understanding of the vocabulary used by sociologists in their quest to discover social facts leads to a better understanding of the discipline by students. It is not easy to compile a dictionary of sociological terms, concepts, and processes because the discipline is a living discipline unlike some other scientific areas of study. Sociology is always evolving—terms, theories, and processes change as the discipline adapts to the changing social world. This dictionary represents an effort to incorporate those changes into the science known as sociology.
