Sobre IBD

With particular attention to his thought in the fields of the sociology of knowledge and the sociology of modernization and modernity, this book offers a sympathetic exposition and evaluation of Peter Berger’s work as one of the world’s most accomplished sociologists. An examination of Berger’s work on pluralism, production, consciousness and the social construction of reality, the author considers his thoughtful approach to analysis - that of ’sociological tourism’ - which departs sharply from the current emphasis in the social sciences on ever more complex and ostensibly rigorous statistical procedures.
