      Acknowledgements

      This book and its accompanying volume, Contemporary Sociological Theory, took many years to complete. Initially we envisaged writing one shorter volume focusing on both classical and contemporary social thought, but soon realised that we had to cover many more sociological theories and theorists than we originally planned. Since sociological thought is so rich and diverse, including thousands of scholars who have made a significant contribution to the development of sociology, it became apparent that a single volume could not do justice to all forms of sociological thinking. Hence after completing 32 chapters and discussing it with our editors at SAGE, it was agreed to split the original manuscript into two separate books – Classical Sociological Theory and Contemporary Sociological Theory. The original manuscript was also substantially shortened in this process, the principal aim of which was to make the two books as accessible as possible to students. Both authors have contributed equally to these two volumes. In Classical Sociological Theory, Loyal was responsible for writing Chapters 1, 4, 5, 11 and 12 and Malešević wrote 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. In Contemporary Sociological Theory, Loyal was the lead author for Chapters 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 while Malešević was responsible for Chapters 1, 9, 10, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20, with the Introduction and Chapter 3 a product of joint work.

      We would especially like to thank Roddy Condon for his invaluable work in producing the boxed pedagogical material and compiling the references. We would also like to thank Chris Rojek for encouraging us to write this book and also for commissioning the project. Thanks also to Tim Mooney for helpful comments on Chapter 1, and Kieran Allen for comments on Chapter 5. We are also very grateful to everyone at SAGE for their goodwill and enormous patience with the numerous new deadlines that we never met. Finally, we would like to thank our families for their support during the very long and sometimes arduous, but mostly enjoyable, writing process.

      Introduction: The Rise of Social Thought

      In 1971 Lewis Coser wrote an unusual, and later highly successful, textbook Masters of Sociological Thought: Ideas in Historical and Social Context. The book differed from the standard social science textbooks of its time. Instead of summarising
