What are religion and nonreligion? How do fundamentalism and religious radicalization emerge and grow? How do social class, gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, and other factors affect religious beliefs, practices, and organizations? Is religion a fundamental driving force or do political leaders use religion for their own purposes? In exploring these pertinent questions, An Introduction to the Sociology of Religion provides an overview of sociological theories of contemporary religious life. Theoretical discussion is accompanied by presentations of empirical research from several religious traditions in many parts of the world. The sociology of religion is linked closely to developments in general sociology. Some chapters are organized according to topic, while others offer brief presentations of classical and contemporary sociologists from Karl Marx to Patricia Hill Collins and their perspectives on social life, including on religion. This second edition has been thoroughly updated throughout with new chapters on religion and social inequalities, social and religious movements, and extremism.Covering classical sociology of religion as well as contemporary debates and topics, this book is ideal reading for students approaching the sociology of religion for the first time.

Sociologiska perspektiv i vård, omsorg och socialt arbete är en klassiker som har använts flitigt vid vård- och sociologiutbildningar i Norden i snart tjugo år. Den tredje utgåvan är uppdaterad både när det gäller förändringar i välfärdssektorn och ny teori och forskning. Boken beskriver de sociologiska grundbegreppen och olika sociologiska inriktningar på ett lättfattligt men samtidigt yrkesmässigt och noggrant sätt. Det allmänna innehållet knyts ihop med ämnen och situationer som vårdpersonal och socialarbetare möter och måste förhålla sig till. Perspektiven skiftar från den enskilda anställda eller klienten till samhällsförändringar på ett makroplan, med särskild inriktning på samspelet mellan aktörer och samhällsstrukturer. Därmed bidrar boken till bättre kunskap om både det som händer inom hälso- och sjukvården och den sociala sektorn och det som händer mellan dessa sektorer i samhället. Sociologiska perspektiv i vård, omsorg och socialt arbete riktar sig främst till studenter på kandidatnivå inom omvårdnad och sociologi men är relevant att läsa för alla inom yrken där man kommer i kontakt med människor.

Kvalitativa forskningsmetoder är centrala i samhällsvetenskapen. I denna praktiskt inriktade bok om kvalita-tiv metod tar författaren upp frågor kring observation, fältarbete, intervjuer och textanalys. När är kvalitativa metoder lämpliga, och hur åstadkommer man en väl genomförd studie? Boken behandlar frågor om hur man analyserar och tolkar kvalitativa data, och ger läsaren vägledning i hur man strukturerar och skriver en kvali-tativ forskningsrapport. Närhet och distans är praktiskt inriktad och ger råd och idéer. Författaren behandlar viktiga vetenskapliga frågor på ett systematiskt sätt, men skriver samtidigt engagerat och utan högtidligheter. Språket är därför enkelt och rakt på sak. Läsaren får ta del av många metodologiska och forskningsetiska avvägningar och konkreta exempel. I denna fjärde upplaga har hela texten genomgått en grundlig revidering. Mer material och fördjupande resonemang har tillkommit, bland annat om typologier, rapportskrivande, forskningsetik och kvalitetskriterier för kvalitativ forskning. Boken, som används på många universitet i hela Norden, är mycket användbar i främst samhällsvetenskapli-ga metodkurser på grundnivå. Den lämpar sig också som komplement på högre nivåer.Fjärde upplagan
