Book The Fields and Methods of Sociology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Fields and Methods of Sociology Classic Reprint written by L. L. Bernard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fields and Methods of Sociology His volume is intended to serve as a textbook for advanced T courses in sociology in which the purpose is to survey the various divisions of sociology as this science has developed in the United States in particular, and in all other countries where the subject is taught or studied. It emphasizes especially the sources of materials for investigation, the methods of research, and the processes of generalization in the various fields of sociological science. Present day sociologists are more interested in research than in classification. It is recognized, however, that intelligent research cannot be undertaken to the best advantage without an adequate understanding of the various divisions into which the general science of sociology falls. Consequently, the first part of the volume is devoted to an analysis of the fields and problems of sociology and the second part to sources and methods. While the volume is organized in textbook form, it is expected that it will appeal very largely to the general reader who is searching for a well organized and clear presentation of the subject of sociology in all its aspects. It is believed that the present volume offers the most complete and thoroughgoing analysis and synthesis of sociological content and methodology now available. I wish to emphasize especially the inductive approach of the present treatise. Every chapter is the result of a careful study of the data it treats. Speculative and a priori approaches have been avoided. Consequently each field of sociology has been analyzed realistically as to subject matter, sources and methods and the results are set forth as clearly and as simply and directly as pos sible.

Book Twentieth Century Sociology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Twentieth Century Sociology Classic Reprint written by Georges Gurvitch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twentieth Century Sociology Nineteenth Century Sociology was characterized by a limited number of problems more or less dogmatically ac cepted and differently resolved in conflicting schools. The initial tendency to link if not to identify sociology with philosophy of history or theory of evolution (as exemplified by Auguste Comte, Herbert Spencer, and even Karl Marx) was overcome only slowly and step by step. The field was marked by eternal discussions between the partisans of order or the admirers of progress; between the defenders of the individual or of Society, contrasted with each other as isolated entities; between the promoters of psychology as against sociology, and vice versa; and among the proponents of a predominating factor in so cial life, such as the geographical, biological, anthropo racial, demographic, technological, and so on (not one of which as a matter of.fact when taken separately belongs to the social reality). These conflicts threatened to com promise the scientific character of early sociological re search. The practice of seeking and formulating socio logical laws on which different sociologists could never agree completed the rather dismal picture of sociology in the first century of its birth.

The principle has been kept to the front throughout the treatise that the chief justification of the existence of any group is found in giving the persons who compose that group the fullest and richest possibilities of developing all their poten tial powers. Another principle of importance has been given a Similar prominence, namely, that the chief justification of the existence of any person is found in giving his life nu selfishly in upbuilding the lives of other persons and groups.

Book Sociology Its Development and Applications  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Sociology Its Development and Applications Classic Reprint written by James Quayle Dealey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sociology Its Development and Applications This work is an enlargement and revision of the au: thor's Sociology issued in 1909. In it no attempt has been made to work out a system, a sufficient number of which already exist, or to set forth novel and untried hypotheses in social theory. The author has sought rather to give a sort of survey of sociological development, so that the reader interested in social problems, or the stu dent desirous oi a comprehensible statement of the main aspects of sociology, may have in fairly brief compass a general view of its rise and its relations to other sci emees, a sketch of the development of social institutions, and a short discussion of social problems and of the factors to be considered in social progress. The volume, as a textbook for college purposes, may be supplemented by more detailed studies and by personal investigations of social conditions on the part of the stu dents. Its reading references, purposely abbreviated, may aid the general reader to follow more closely such aspects as may arouse interest. If both student and reader find the presentation of the subject matter fairly clear and helpful to an understanding of social questions, the purpose of the author will have been fulfilled.

Book The Outlines of Sociology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Outlines of Sociology Classic Reprint written by Edward Alsworth Ross and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Outlines of Sociology Here is my Principles of Sociology cut down a third, rearranged, rephrased and equipped for the class room. Still, I advise teachers who have been using Principles as a text not to discard it for this book. It is fuller, and as for the exercises, they can be had of the publisher in pamphlet form and placed in the hands Of each student. Outlines of Sociology is provided in order to meet the demand for a shorter text for the use of those who cannot devote as much as a semester to the subject. My thirty-two years of trying to impart Sociology to university students have resulted in a technique which teachers of this book may like to know about. Now that my system of Sociology is to be had between covers I do not lecture. I lead discussions. My class is broken up into sections not to exceed twenty-five members. Each student has his appointed seat and a glance over the section enables me to record absences on the seating chart before me. At the beginning Of the course every student is supplied with an assignment sheet (to be pasted inside the back cover of his text), which shows exactly what will be required Of him for every session in the semester. After ten or twelve minutes of sharp quizzing (here is where the quiz questions come in) we take up the exercises. If those per taining to the assigned lesson exceed five in number, the student answers only alternate exercises, those sitting in Odd-number seats answering odd-number exercises and those sitting in even-number seats answer ing even-number exercises. The student is expected to have wrestled with the exercises in advance and to bring with him written solutions. His paper is not to be handed in but is there as evidence that the student has given enough consideration to the problems to formulate and write down answers. When, after reading out an exercise I call upon Reed or Daly for an answer, he is not to improvise, but to read his written answer. If he has nothing in black and white he says unprepared, even if a bright idea is on his tongue's tip. After a few answers have been considered, the question is thrown open to general discussion and then the impromptu ideas get their innings.
