978-0-367-86189-6 (ISBN)
The Routledge International Handbook of C. Wright Mills Studies brings together leading scholars of the work of radical sociologist C. Wright Mills to showcase its impact across the social sciences. Showing how Mills’ thought can be taken up - and in some cases, sympathetically reformulated - to tackle problems of power and politics, it presents an authoritative state-of-the-art overview of Mills’ groundbreaking ideas and his far-reaching theoretical and methodological impact. Crucially, the volume also illustrates the value of thinking with Mills in addressing the complexities of contemporary capitalist democracies. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology, anthropology, organization studies, peace and conflict studies, criminology, politics and public administration.
Jon Frauley is Associate Professor in the Department of Criminology at the University of Ottawa, Canada. He is the author of Criminology, Deviance and the Silver Screen and is editor of and contributor to C. Wright Mills and the Criminological Imagination and (with Frank Pearce) Critical Realism and the Social Sciences.
