The Economy and the Environment /Schnaiberg, Allan --Contributors --IndexThe Handbook of Economic Sociology, Second Edition is the most comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of economic sociology available. The first edition, copublished in 1994 by Princeton University Press and the Russell Sage Foundation as a synthesis of the burgeoning field of economic sociology, soon established itself as the definitive presentation of the field, and has been widely read, reviewed, and adopted. Since then, the field of economic sociology has continued to grow by leaps and bounds and to move into new theoretical and empirical territory. The second edition, while being as all-embracing in its coverage as the first edition, represents a wholesale revamping. Neil Smelser and Richard Swedberg have kept the main overall framework intact, but nearly two-thirds of the chapters are new or have new authors. As in the first edition, they bring together leading sociologists as well as representatives of other social sciences. But the thirty chapters of this volume incorporate many substantial thematic changes and new lines of research--for example, more focus on international and global concerns, chapters on institutional analysis, the transition from socialist economies, organization and networks, and the economic sociology of the ancient world. The Handbook of Economic Sociology, Second Edition is the definitive resource on what continues to be one of the leading edges of sociology and one of its most important interdisciplinary adventures. It is a must read for all faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates doing work in the field.

Originating in the South-Yemeni region of Hadramawt, the Alawi tariqa mainly spread along the coast of the Indian Ocean. The Alawis are here portrayed as one of many cultural mediators in the multi-ethnic, multi-religious Indian Ocean world in the era of European colonialism.Indian Ocean series.SufismAfrica, EastHistorySufisAfrica, EastBiographyUlamaAfrica, EastBiographyNosairiansAfrica, EastBiographyIslamic sectsAfrica, EastHistorySufismHistory.SufisUlamaNosairiansIslamic sectsHistory.297.4/811.83bclBang Anne K.661767FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910783968703321Sufis and scholars of the sea3700525UNINA05446nam 2200697Ia 450 991101948390332120251116150315.09786610556618978128055661612805566179780471477426047147742797804714774330471477435(CKB)1000000000018976(EBL)792804(SSID)ssj0000310329(PQKBManifestationID)11239014(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000310329(PQKBWorkID)10289287(PQKB)11758741(MiAaPQ)EBC792804(OCoLC)58481522(Perlego)2776058(EXLCZ)99100000000001897620030523d2004 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrStatistics for research /Shirley Dowdy, Stanley Weardon [i.e. Wearden], Daniel Chilko3rd ed.Hoboken, N.J.
