Fox -- "Social evolution" in the light of the human-condition paradigm / Victor M. Lidz "Esteemed twentieth-century sociologist Talcott Parsons sought to develop a comprehensive and coherent scheme for sociology that could be applied to every society and historical epoch and address every aspect of human social organization and culture. His theory of social action has exerted enormous influence across a wide range of social science disciplines. After Parsons, edited by Renee C. Fox, Victor M. Lidz, and Harold J. Bershady, provides a critical reexamination of Parsons's theory in light of historical changes in the world and advances in sociological thought since his death." "After Parsons is a fresh examination of Parsons's theoretical undertaking, its significance for social scientific thought, and its implications for present-day empirical research. After Parsons addresses major themes of enduring relevance, including social differentiation and cultural diversity, social solidarity, universalism and particularism, and trust and affect in social life. The contributors explore these topics in a wide range of social institutions - family and kinship, economy, polity, the law, medicine, art, and religion - and within the context of contemporary developments such as globalization, the power of the United States as an "empireless empire," the emergence of forms of fundamentalism, the upsurge of racial, tribal, and ethnic conflicts, and the increasing occurrence of deterministic and positivistic thought. Rather than simply celebrating Parsons and his accomplishments, the contributors to After Parsons rethink and reformulate his ideas to place them on more solid foundations, extend their scope, and strengthen their empirical insights."
