About the author

Anthony Giddens, Baron Giddens (born 18 January 1938) is a British sociologist who is renowned for his theory of structuration and his holistic view of modern societies. He is considered to be one of the most prominent modern contributors in the field of sociology, the author of at least 34 books, published in at least 29 languages, issuing on average more than one book every year. In 2007, Giddens was listed as the fifth most-referenced author of books in the humanities.

Three notable stages can be identified in his academic life. The first one involved outlining a new vision of what sociology is, presenting a theoretical and methodological understanding of that field, based on a critical reinterpretation of the classics. His major publications of that era include Capitalism and Modern Social Theory (1971) and New Rules of Sociological Method (1976). In the second stage Giddens developed the theory of structuration, an analysis of agency and structure, in which primacy is granted to neither. His works of that period, such as Central Problems in Social Theory (1979) and The Constitution of Society (1984), brought him international fame on the sociological arena.

The most recent stage concerns modernity, globalization and politics, especially the impact of modernity on social and personal life. This stage is reflected by his critique of postmodernity, and discussions of a new "utopian-realist"[3] third way in politics, visible in the Consequence of Modernity (1990), Modernity and Self-Identity (1991), The Transformation of Intimacy (1992), Beyond Left and Right (1994) and The Third Way: The Renewal of Social Democracy (1998). Giddens' ambition is both to recast social theory and to re-examine our understanding of the development and trajectory of modernity.

Currently Giddens serves as Emeritus Professor at the London School of Economics.

Reviews

A solid brief introduction to Durkheim. Important especially for its critique of Durkheim's approach and inclusion of less well known ideas about politics and the state. Not much has happened in the overall interpretation of Durkheim in the last 30 years, so still relevant.

برای آشنایی با دورکم به دشدت پیشنهاد می شود. کتاب گزیده و منسجم و خوبی است. اما ای کاش دکتر اباذری بازنگری می کردند چون ترجمه و به خصوص معادل سازی ها به نسبت امروز ایرادهایی دارد.

Clear, crisp and refreshing. I found this introduction to be a good overview of Durkheim's sociological contributions. Dividing the different aspects of his works into separate chapters and it's relation to the history of philosophy made the book a fun and easy read.

جرم را می توان هر عملی دانست که علیه مرتکب شونده اش واکنش مشخصی را که مجازات می نامیم بر می انگیزد

jao majku mu teško mi je da dam ocenu za ovo jer sam čitala jer moram ne zato što baš želim. fakultet te na svašta natera izgleda - a ovako, mislim se nešto zašto bi iko ovo čitao samovoljno? :D dirkem mi se ne dopada, pun je protivrečnosti a i salonac je bio! ni gidens mi nije ništa bolji doduše, udžbenički piše... ali ko šta pita studente/studentkinje kad fakultet služi za zgrtanje blaga što bi freni rekla :D no nešto mi i 3 zvezdice mnogo ali ajde sad

کتاب خوبی برای آشنایی با دورکیم و روش دورکیم در جامعه‌شناسی هست. فقط ترجمه‌ی دکتر اباذری کمی دل آدم رو میزنه چون در برخی موارد انتخاب واژگان خوبی نداشتن و همچنین معادل اصلی برخی واژه‌های کلیدی و مفاهیم در قسمت پاورقی نیومده که خودش خیلی مشکل ایجاد می‌کنه. چون هر مترجمی یه معادل فارسی ممکنه ارائه بده و خواننده بعد از خواندن چند تا کتاب حسابی گیج میشه در این مورد که "این همون بود یا نه؟!"

An acceptable and very brief overview of Durkheim's sociology.

یکی از اولین کتاب‌هایی بود که تو دانشگاه به پیشنهاد یه دوستی خوندم. خودش گفت اون هم با این کتاب جامعه‌شناسی رو شروع کرده بود. مقدمه‌ی خوبی برای فهمیدن دورکیم بود.
