The controversial book deals with the history, significance and limits of the category of social role and discusses the dilemma posed by \u003ci\u003ehomo sociologicus\u003c\/i\u003e. The author shows that for society and sociology, socialization invariably means depersonalization, the yielding up of man's absolute individuality and liberty to the constraint and generality of social roles. This volume includes the essay, \u003ci\u003eSociology and Human Nature\u003c\/i\u003e, written as a postscript to \u003ci\u003eHomo Sociologicus\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralf Dahrendorf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032196769\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032196763\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/13\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.31d","brand":"Ralf Dahrendorf","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44127905612031,"sku":"9781032196763","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_425c06c1-6c9c-4031-8613-c88816e1b23a.jpg?v=1687455883","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/homo-sociologicus-ralf-dahrendorf-9781032196763","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
