The Roots of Sociology

Scottish Enlightenment and the Civilising Process

This book argues that of today's 'core' social scientific disciplines, it is sociology that has inherited the capacious ambitions of the Scottish Enlightenment. The Roots of Sociology offers a critical, qualified introduction to the precocious effort of the Scottish Enlightenment to create a theory of 'the civilising process'.
