SOCIALIZATION - MURIEL DARMON KARTONIERT (TB)

How does society form and transform individuals? Sociology has been asking this question since
its inception and socialization has been analyzed from different vantage points by various
prominent thinkers. Socialization offers an overview of some of these perspectives in the
classic work of key theorists and contemporary research that has either developed or challenged
these ideas. The book argues that  while socialization has sometimes been framed as an outdated
static approach  it in fact remains highly relevant and continues to provide valuable insight
into how we come to act and think as we do. Drawing on a wide variety of empirical examples 
the book offers a lively  accessible account of primary and secondary socialization  and how
they interconnect. By considering socialization as a process that continues throughout the life
course  the book highlights the dynamic and enduring ways in which the social world is involved
in shaping and reshaping individuals  shedding productive light on the effects of class  gender
and race  as well as on inequality and domination. Socialization will appeal to students and
scholars in sociology  as well as other disciplines such as psychology and education.
