520			_aThe Wiley Blackwell Companion to Political Sociology is a reference guide, reflecting the scope and quality of the discipline, and highlighting emerging topics in the field. -- The essays, from an international, interdisciplinary group of leading scholars, build on each other, each including concepts, theories and case studies to investigate a topic and provide an overview of scholarship in the field. The book examines the full range of contributions to political sociology as never before. -- The Companion has been completely revised and expanded, to reflect advances in conceptual frameworks, and to deal in greater depth with topics related to globalization, social movements, and citizenship. New chapters reflect conceptual advances in the field, taking full account of developments over the last decade. -- Sociologists take various positions on the roots and consequences of political action, and the interdisciplinary nature of their debates make this an invaluable entry point into mapping and evaluating contemporary politics. -- Edwin Amenta is Professor of Sociology, Political Science, and History, University of California, Irvine. He has published extensively on political sociology, social movements, historical and comparative sociology, and the news media. -- Kate Nash is Professor of Sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London and Faculty Fellow at the Center for Cultural Sociology, Yale University. She has published widely on political sociology and human rights. -- Alan Scott is Professor of Sociology, University Innsbruck (Austria) and Adjunct Professor, University of New England, NSW, Australia. He researches and publishes in the area of political and organizational sociology, and on social theory. --Book Jacket.
