Encyclopedia of SOCIAL THEORY

---

This is the first Encyclopedia of Social Theory. There are, of course, encyclopedias of the social sciences rn(among others) that have addressed some of the topics assembled here. However, because their treatment of social theory has been only part of a much broader set of topics, these other sets of volumes have been enable to provide the focus and depth required to define the field of social theory in a reasonably complete (of course, inevitably there are topics that are not covered) and systematic fashion. rnThus, the Encyclopedia of Social Theory offers handbook-like (albeit briefer) entries on cutting-edge topics, such as globalization, consumption, complexity theory, and actor network theory, and it provides state-of-the-art interpretatopns of long establilshed theory. Also, like a dictionary, the entries in this encyclopedia provide basic introductions to key ideas, concepts, schools, and figures in social theory. However, the entries tend to be gar longer and offer much more depth than those found in dictionaries.
