Introduction to Politics and Society comprehensively demonstrates how key
theoretical and concepts in political science have foretold, rationalized and
shaped politics in the contemporary world.
Students will discover the meaning of `power', `authority', `coercion',
`surveillance' and `legitimacy'. The ideas of Weber, Marx, Foucault, Bauman,
Sennett, Habermas, Baudrillard and Giddens are explained with clarity and
precision. Well-chosen examples, many from popular political culture
illustrate the relevance of fundamental theoretical debates. This book also
examines:
\- The central tendencies in the movement from modern to post-modern society
\- The significance, strengths and weaknesses of `Third Way' politics
\- The decline of organized party politics
\- The development of new social movements
Developed with an understanding of the requirements of students and lecturers,
this book is an extraordinary resource for undergraduate teaching and study
needs. It will be required reading for undergraduate students in sociology,
politics and social policy.
