It examines questions which give rise to fundamental philosophical issues. Are social structures better conceived of as systems of laws and forces, or as webs of meanings and practices? Is social action better viewed as rational behaviour, or as self-expression? By exploring such questions, the reader is led to reflect upon the nature of scientific method in social science. Is the aim to explain the social world after a manner worked out for the natural world, or to understand the social world from within?Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 138mmItem Width: 19mmItem Weight: 385gAuthor: Martin HollisGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityTopic: Social Sciences, Society & CultureBook Series: Cambridge Introductions to PhilosophyType: Communication StudiesISBN-10: 0521447801Release Year: 1994 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
