Time Matters: On Theory and Method
ISBN: 9780226001036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What do variables really tell us? When exactly do inventions occur? Why do we always miss turning points as they transpire? When does what doesn't happen mean as much, if not more, than what does? Andrew Abbott considers these fascinating questions in "Time Matters, " a diverse series of essays that constitutes the most extensive analysis of temporality in social science today. Ranging from abstract theoretical reflection to pointed methodological critique, Abbott demonstrates the inevitably theoretical character of any methodology.

Processual Sociology
ISBN: 9780226336626 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For the past twenty years, noted sociologist Andrew Abbott has been developing what he calls a processual ontology for social life. In this view, the social world is constantly changing--making, remaking, and unmaking itself, instant by instant. He argues that even the units of the social world--both individuals and entities--must be explained by these series of events rather than as enduring objects, fixed in time. This radical concept, which lies at the heart of the Chicago School of Sociology, provides a means for the disciplines of history and sociology to interact with and reflect...

The System of Professions: An Essay on the Division of Expert Labor
ISBN: 9780226000695 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In The System of Professions Andrew Abbott explores central questions about the role of professions in modern life: Why should there be occupational groups controlling expert knowledge? Where and why did groups such as law and medicine achieve their power? Will professionalism spread throughout the occupational world? While most inquiries in this field study one profession at a time, Abbott here considers the system of professions as a whole. Through comparative and historical study of the professions in nineteenth- and twentieth-century England, France, and America, Abbott builds a...

Department and Discipline: Chicago Sociology at One Hundred
ISBN: 9780226000992 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this detailed history of the Chicago School of Sociology, Andrew Abbott investigates central topics in the emergence of modern scholarship, paying special attention to "schools of science" and how such schools reproduce themselves over time. What are the preconditions from which schools arise? Do they exist as rigid rules or as flexible structures? How do they emerge from the day-to-day activities of academic life such as editing journals and writing papers? Abbott analyzes the shifts in social scientific inquiry and discloses the intellectual rivalry and faculty politics that...

Chaos of Disciplines
ISBN: 9780226001012 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this vital new study, Andrew Abbott presents a fresh and daring analysis of the evolution and development of the social sciences. "Chaos of Disciplines" reconsiders how knowledge actually changes and advances. Challenging the accepted belief that social sciences are in a perpetual state of progress, Abbott contends that disciplines instead cycle around an inevitable pattern of core principles. New schools of thought, then, are less a reaction to an established order than they are a reinvention of fundamental concepts.
