This book offers a comprehensive introduction to political sociology through a sequence of guiding questions that trace how power is formed, exercised and contested in social life. It moves from core concepts and methods to examinations of the state, elites, social classes, political participation, ideology, identity and global transformations. Blending classical foundations with contemporary research, it illuminates issues such as populism, global inequality, digital politics and climate change.
The final chapters consider the challenges posed by artificial intelligence and deepening interdependence, examining how algorithmic systems, transnational infrastructures and new forms of digital inequality are reshaping participation, legitimacy and the very texture of political subjectivity. They explore how emerging technologies alter the relationship between citizens and institutions, how global data regimes complicate national sovereignty, and how future forms of collective action may arise in environments where human and non-human actors co-produce political outcomes. In doing so, the book invites readers to see political sociology as a field uniquely equipped to interpret these changes, offering the conceptual tools needed to understand how shifting social conditions, cultural meanings and technological forces will shape the trajectory of political life in the years ahead.
