From this perspective its authors demonstrate and explain problems which they consider to be crucial for contemporary social science. These are topics of a theoretical and epistemological nature, which are nevertheless closely connected with social development and issues arising from it. The book moves from the more general theoretical questions and dilemmas raised by key social thinkers, such as those connected with the concepts of actor, agency, institutions, structures and systems. It then leads to theoretical reflections on long-term developmental processes associated with the phenomena of power and life in current societies, including globalization, identities, migration, etc. It provides a comprehensive approach to the essential questions of sociology. Lucidly written and including the latest sociological perspectives, this book will find wide appeal among social science students and researchers, and is also for the socially aware general reader. 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial sciences?Philosophy 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aSocial change 606 $aSociological Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22060 606 $aSocial Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E43000 606 $aDevelopment and Social Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913030 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial sciences?Philosophy. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aSocial change. 615 14$aSociological Theory. 615 24$aSocial Philosophy. 615 24$aDevelopment and Social Change. 676 $a300.1 700 $a?ubrt$b Ji?í$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0847465 702 $aKumsa$b Alemayehu$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aRuzzeddu$b Massimiliano$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416147803321 996 $aExplaining Social Processes$91892908 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00892nam 2200289z- 450 001 9910708491503321 005 20241218121206.0 035 $a(CKB)3780000000238727 035 $a(DcWaBHL)4130 035 $a(EXLCZ)993780000000238727 100 $a20240129c1979uuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 12$aA Small oil spill at West Falmouth 210 1$aWashington$cU.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Research and Development$d1979 215 $a1 online resource 517 $aSmall oil spill at West Falmouth / [editor 606 $aOil pollution of rivers, harbors, etc 606 $aOil spills 610 $aMassachusetts 610 $aWest Falmouth 615 4$aOil pollution of rivers, harbors, etc 615 4$aOil spills 801 0$bGIS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910708491503321 996 $aA Small oil spill at West Falmouth$94448587 997 $aUNINA
