This text provides an overview of the sociology of change and transition, exploring how global transformation processes impact on everyday life by examining a number of ‘hot spots’ of change in contemporary society: the city, the workplace, patterns of consumption, politics, broader areas and the environment. It engages with a range of theories and concepts, in order to investigate the interplay of continuity and change in contemporary society, and assesses their usefulness. It also speculates on the shape of emerging social orders
