This detailed, timely book provides a map of the production and reception of French social thought within a global sociological context.  Critically comparing the work of five key theorists Derek Robbins examines how their ideas were produced and received before persuasively setting out the key differences between their philosophical and ideological positions.  The book sensitively traces the cross-currents of social theory and confidently leads the reader through the complex foundations of Western social thought. Each chapter represents a textual analysis of the production of a critical intellectual and focuses upon the work of: Althusser, Foucault, Aron, Lyotard, Bourdieu.  This carefully crafted volume represents a significant contribution to the globalization of theory and will be essential reading for anyone interested in Western social theory and the foundations of sociological thought."--Publisher's website. 0aSociologyzFrancexHistoryy20th century. 0aSocial scienceszFrancexPhilosophy. 0aSociologistszFrancexHistoryy20th century. 0tSAGE Knowledge - A-Z List 0aTheory, culture & society (Unnumbered)40uhttp://www.columbia.edu/cgi-bin/cul/resolve?clio10414885zFull text available from SAGE Knowledge - A-Z List  aLibrary of Congress record  2ddccBK  c49731d49731  00102ddc406301_094400000000000_ROF708NFIC982383aDULbDULcGENd2013-06-01ePurchasedo301.0944 ROFp479454r2016-03-22t1w2016-03-22yBK
