When Formality Works: Authority and Abstraction in Law and Organizations
ISBN: 9780226774961 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this innovative exploration of the concept of formality, or governing by abstraction, Arthur Stinchcombe breathes new life into an idea that scholars have all but ignored in recent years.
We have come to assume that governing our social activities by advance planning--by creating abstract descriptions of what ought to happen and adjusting these descriptions as situations change--is not as efficient and responsive as dealing directly with the real substance of the situation at hand. Stinchcombe argues the opposite. When a plan is designed to correct itself and keep up with the reality...

Stratification and Organization: Selected Papers
ISBN: 9780521325882 / Angielski / Twarda / 1986 / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The essays in this collection, on stratification, organization and the discipline of sociology, all bear upon a general theoretical question: what models of rationality are necessary or suitable to explain individual and collective action in institutional contexts? Professor Stinchcombe was one of the first sociologists to write on this question; and this collection includes a new essay which takes account of recent work done in the tradition Stinchcombe did much to institute. The first group of essays - on class, stratification and mobility - addresses core problems of the discipline and...

Constructing Social Theories
ISBN: 9780226774848 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Constructing Social Theories" presents to the reader a range of strategies for constructing theories, and in a clear, rigorous, and imaginative manner, illustrates how they can be applied. Arthur L. Stinchcombe argues that theories should not be invented in the abstract or applied "a priori" to a problem but should be dictated by the nature of the data to be explained. This work was awarded the Sorokin prize by the American Sociological Association as the book that made an outstanding contribution to the progress of sociology in 1970.
