"This collections presents a provocative wide-angle view of the history of social theory, including very recent work which interestingly engages with a future only dimly coming into focus. Well-chosen selections from the new social movements as well as the classics and recent mainstream make this a fine introduction for courses in the social sciences. The collection also offers students and scholars in other fields a valuable overview of the ideas and assumptions that have shaped thought in the humanities, jurisprudence, and public policy more generally." -- Sandra Harding, UCLA, Co-Editor of Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society "Lemert gives shape to a sociological imagination for the twenty-first century. This is necessary reading for us all." -- Patricia Clough, Queens College and CUNY Graduate Center "With an equally sure grasp of the classics of the past and the probable classics of the future, Charles Lemert has assembled a remarkable array of stimulating readings in social theory. The result is a well-stocked tool kit for the canon wars of the twenty-first century." -- Martin Jay, University of California at Berkeley, "Each time I open this book it is nothing short of a spiritual experience. I cannot imagine a better, more wonderfully diverse compilation of such writings. Dr. Lemert's words are vital and equally powerful supplements to the words of these transformative thinkers." -Ben McKeown, sociology student Praise for Prior Editions "Lemert has given ample space to those who are at the margins of or fall completely outside of what most consider social theory … and [who] contribute to a diverse, broad, multilevel, and, in places, deep treatment of social theory and its evolution. … Late modern and postmodern theorists are well represented, and the focuses on race, gender, and globalization make this text useful for courses far beyond the standard undergraduate one in sociological theory. This book would also be well suited to more focused courses on modernity and postmodernity or even in a cultural studies curriculum. … Excellent." -Stephen Lippmann, Teaching Sociology "Lemert provides an illuminating introduction to the collection and introductions to each section that provide an overview of the socio-historical context and delineation of key thinkers and texts in each period. Combining important classical and contemporary material, Lemert's collection enables the student and reader to trace out the origins of the modern world to our present global and conflicted condition." -Douglas Kellner, University of California, Los Angeles "This collections presents a provocative wide-angle view of the history of social theory, including very recent work which interestingly engages with a future only dimly coming into focus.

For nearly twenty years, I've kept up-to-date on contemporary social theory by using Lemert as a guide to complete articles and books worth reading." -- Jerry Daday, Western Kentucky University " Social Theory provides a distinctive opportunity to read primary source material across a wide range of theoretical, political, and historical contexts, yet is expansive enough to offer flexibility in how I teach from one semester to the next." -- Anthony Hatch, Georgia State University "This book is nothing short of a spiritual experience.

New Edition
Synopsis
For over twenty years Charles Lemert has scoured the canon of social theory, pulling together long-established classics as well as engaging modern writing to create an essential collection of social theory from the nineteenth century to the present. In this heavily revised fifth edition, Lemert reevaluates the received canon and reasserts this iconic text's place in the standard curriculum. Classic, essential texts from thinkers like Marx, Durkheim, and James remain; other key writers, like Dewey and Connell, are presented in a new light; and leading figures in the discussion of twenty-first-century society, such as Elijah Anderson and Bruno Latour, are anthologized here for the first time. In addition to classic and multicultural readings, the new fifth edition introduces a discussion of global social theory as well as important new and evolving topics like mobile technologies, the virtual realm, masculinities, and bare life. For the first time, timelines are included to visually present readings against the backdrop of significant events in social and world history. With more than 100 authors, thinkers, and scholars represented, the fifth edition of Social Theory is an essential component of any course on social theory., For nearly a quarter-century, Charles Lemert has shared his love of social theory, and the questions it explores, in this collection of readings. With 140 selections that begin in the nineteenth century and end in 2015, Social Theory charts the long arc of the development of the field. This edition retains classic texts by Karl Marx, Emile Durkheim, Max Weber, and W.E.B. Du Bois and writings of major contemporary figures like Audre Lorde and Patricia Hill Collins, while adding pieces from Harriet Martineau, Friedrich Nietzsche, Kimberl Williams Crenshaw, Thomas Piketty, and Ta-Nehisi Coates, among others. Revised and updated with a new section exploring social theory at the limits of the social, Lemert's Social Theory remains essential reading., For more than twenty years, Charles Lemert has shared his love of social theory, and the inherent questions it explores, in this collection of readings. With selections that begin in the nineteenth century and end in 2015, Lemert presents more than 100 readings that chart the long arc of the development of the field of social theory. Revised and updated with a new section exploring social theory at the limits of the social, Lemert's Social Theory remains essential reading for any social theory student.
