9780761864387: The Logical Foundations of Social Theory

Synopsis

The Logical Foundations of Social Theory describes Gert Mueller's argument that physical, biological, social, moral, and cultural reality form an asymmetrical hierarchy of founding and controlling relationships that condition social reality rather than mechanically determining it. This book analyzes social stratification as labor, wealth and power, the moral order as solidarity, ideology and morality, and culture systems as art, science, and religion.
