The Politics of Sociology: Gouldner, Goffman, and Garfinkel
This chapter provides an analysis of the meaning of Harold Garfinkel to the politics of methodology. In The Coming Crisis of Western Sociology, Alvin Gouldner (1970) analyzes the contributions of Erving Goffman and Garfinkel and exposes their technical and political meanings to professional scrutiny.

Theories of Crime and Crimes of Theorists: On the Topological Construction of Criminological Reality
Social science scholarship is increasingly addressing the dynamics of gender, race and class in various institutional contexts. Criminological research is no exception to this trend. Within the criminological sciences, postmodern research is also gaining greater attention and respectability. Notwithstanding the discipline's recent emphasis on postmodernity and cultural plurality, little attention has been given to criminological theory and how th…

Chaos Theory and Human Agency: Humanist Sociology in a Postmodern Era
Chaos and social change: Metaphysics of the postmodern
In this article, findings of chaos theory are explained and extrapolated to social dynamics. Henceforth all social theory must be change theory. Chaos findings demonstrate that natural systems are fractal in their ontology and nonlinear in their dynamics; that bifurcations cascade to transform dynamic states; that near-to-stable dynamics are possible given specific interactions between members of a set. Chaos findings decenter all claims of perfe…
The Drama of Social Life: Essays in Post-Modern Social Psychology
These essays explore the many ways theater and dramaturgy are used to shape the everyday experience of people in mass societies. Young argues that technologies combine with the world of art, music, and cinema to shape consciousness as a commodity and to fragment social relations in the market as well as in religion and politics. He sees the central problem of post-modern society as how to live in a world constructed by human beings without nihili…

The Sociology of Sporta: Structural Marxist and Cultural Marxist Approaches
A Marxian theory of sport has two major dimensions: A political economy in which one weighs the degree to which sports serve the accumulation problems of advanced monopoly capital and a cultural-Marxist dimension in which one examines the ways in which sports solve the problems of legitimacy and help produce alienated consciousness in self and society. This article provides insight in both uses to which commodity sports are put. In brief, advance…

Underground Structures of the Democratic State
The paper offers a sociological explanation for the underground structures which arise in societies organized as political democracies. The case of the United States is used to explore this curious fact. The disjunction between democracy in public life and inequality in private life is resolved by the underground structures of the democratic state. In brief, as a stratified society becomes more democratic, secret police are used to destabilize so…
