More about the book

The exploration of sociological traditions in this volume highlights three key schools of thought: the French liberal tradition, exemplified by Montesquieu and Tocqueville; the Comtean perspective, which emphasizes social unity; and Marxism, focused on class struggle and historical necessity. Raymond Aron presents a nuanced analysis, suggesting that each tradition is driven by a blend of moral beliefs and scientific theories. This edition features an introduction by Daniel J. Mahoney and Brian C. Anderson, enhancing the understanding of Aron's influential work.
