"In this third edition of Capitalism and Classical Social Theory, John Bratton and
David Denham continue to highlight the relevance of classical social theory in today's
world. Discussing the celebrated triumvirate--Karl Marx, Emile Durkheim, and Max Weber--and
extending the conversation to include early women theorists such as Mary Wollstonecraft
and Charlotte Perkins Gilman and the writings of W.E.B. Du Bois and G.H. Mead, the
book details the classical thinkers crucial to understanding the complexities of contemporary
issues. Connecting current headlines in the political mainstream to concepts like
alienation, anomie, class, gender, race, and the environmental crisis, Capitalism
and Classical Social Theory sheds light on how classical sociological theories may
be applied and understood within a modern context. The revised and expanded third
edition features topical discussion of socioeconomic shifts in the post-Trump and
post-Brexit world, and uses original excerpts and additional readings to further contextualize
the significance of classical theory for today"
