The resources of sociology do not appear to have been extensively or systematically utilized in the study of social policy and administration. One source of evidence for this statement is the absence of explicit references to sociological theories in some of the most well known general texts on British social policy and administration. Pinker's recent analysis of social theory and social policy also lends support to the view that there has been, and still remains, something of a division between sociologists and students of social policy and administration. He concludes that the 'founding fathers' of sociology (Marx, Durkheim, Weber and Spencer) had a tendency to be 'not greatly interested...(in)...remedies for social problems', and makes the general observation that 'sociologists have been oddly diffident about the subject-matter of social administration', possibly because of the latter's atheoretical nature
