Key Concepts in Critical Social Theory

Working from "alienation" to "the unconscious," Crossley (no affiliation given) draws together classical and contemporary notions about how we behave in society. He necessarily covers a wide variety of subjects, including body-subject, doxa, deconstruction, intersubjectivity, power, rationality, social capital, orientalism, globalization, hegemony, and those evergreen classics, id, ego and superego. He gives resources for each entry. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
