Bøger af J. A. Jackson

This book was first published in 1972. The concept of role has been central to the development of knowledge about, and measures of, the normative context which mediates between the individual and society. This volume raises a number of questions about the adequacy of the theoretical concept of role when used to describe social phenomena.

This book was originally published in 1970. The concept of profession and the characteristics by which certain occupations are claimed to enjoy professional status is a highly appropriate example of the kind of conceptual area which this Sociological Studies series aims to explore.

Originally published in 1968, all the papers in the first volume of Sociological Studies are centred round the theme of social stratification. An editorial introduction discusses developments in the literature on this subject and provides a background against which the papers are set.
