{"product_id":"varieties-of-social-imagination-barbara-celarent-9780226433967","title":"Varieties of Social Imagination","description":"In July 2009, the \u003ci\u003eAmerican Journal of Sociology\u003c\/i\u003e (AJS) began publishing book reviews by an individual writing as Barbara Celarent, professor of particularity at the University of Atlantis. Mysterious in origin, Celarent's essays taken together provide a broad introduction to social thinking. Through the close reading of important texts, Celarent's short, informative, and analytic essays engaged with long traditions of social thought across the globe--from India, Brazil, and China to South Africa, Turkey, and Peru. . . and occasionally the United States and Europe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Sociologist and AJS editor Andrew Abbott edited the Celarent essays, and in \u003ci\u003eVarieties of Social Imagination\u003c\/i\u003e, he brings the work together for the first time. Previously available only in the journal, the thirty-six meditations found here allow readers not only to engage more deeply with a diversity of thinkers from the past, but to imagine more fully a sociology--and a broader social science--for the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Celarent\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 022643396X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226433967\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Barbara Celarent","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437882716415,"sku":"9780226433967","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4f3c2db4-e586-490d-a427-3ed2766ee10e.jpg?v=1777167415","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/varieties-of-social-imagination-barbara-celarent-9780226433967","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
