Conclusion. .This book analyses the ways in which twenty-first century detective fiction provides an understanding of the increasingly complex and often baffling contemporary world - and what sociology, as a discipline, can learn from it. Conventional sociological accounts of fiction generally comprehend its value in terms of the ways in which it can illustrate, enlarge or help to articulate a particular social theory. Evans, Moore, and Johnstone suggest a different approach, and demonstrate that by taking a group of detective novels, we can unveil so far unidentified, but crucial, theoretical ideas about what it means to be an individual in the twenty-first century. More specifically, the authors argue that detective fiction of the last forty years illuminates the effects of urban isolation and separation, the invisibility of institutional power, financial insecurity, and the failure of public authorities toprotect people. In doing so, this body of fiction traces out the fault-lines in our social arrangements, rehearses our collective fears, and captures a mood of restless disquiet. By engaging with detective stories in this way, the book revisits ideas about the promise and purpose of sociology.SociologySocial structureEqualityCultureStudy and teachingSocial sciencesPhilosophyLiterature, Modern20th centuryLiterature, Modern21st centuryPopular cultureSociologySocial StructureCultural StudiesSocial TheoryContemporary LiteraturePopular CultureSociology.Social structure.Equality.CultureStudy and teaching.Social sciencesPhilosophy.Literature, ModernLiterature, ModernPopular culture.Sociology.Social Structure.Cultural Studies.Social Theory.Contemporary Literature.Popular Culture.809.3872Evans Maryauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut458129Moore Sarahauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autJohnstone Hazelauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910337701203321Detecting the Social2511815UNINA01827nam 22005773 450 991028445270332120230317084551.09791036524639(CKB)4100000006375050(OAPEN)1000435(FrMaCLE)OB-ariadnaediciones-1731(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/38524(MiAaPQ)EBC7174950(Au-PeEL)EBL7174950(OCoLC)1369652126(PPN)235361313(ScCtBLL)3228e454-6507-4ba1-a9c1-b900612176bf(OCoLC)1163808893(oapen)doab38524(oapen)doab87252(EXLCZ)99410000000637505020230317d2017 uy 0spauuuuu---auuuutxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierPensamiento Indígena en Nuestramérica Debates y Propuestas en la Mesa de HoySantiago de ChileAriadna Ediciones2018Santiago :Ariadna Ediciones,2017.©2017.1 online resource (195) Collección Estudios de las Ideas9789568416669 9568416668 Latin America; Indigenous thinking; debatesCollección Estudios de las Ideas vol. 3Society & social sciencesbicsscLatin AmericaIndigenous thinkingdebatesSociety & social sciencesCanales Tapia Pedro1325933Vargas Sebastião1324084MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910284452703321Pensamiento Indígena en Nuestramérica3057886UNINA
