The book critically examines the complex power dynamics between the state and civil society, exploring how recent social changes have reshaped this relationship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTopics such as globalization, the rise of new social movements, neoliberalism, citizenship, political culture, and political participation are examined in detail. Faulks also presents critiques of influential sociologists like Giddens, Beck, and Etzioni, while arguing that the power of the state has not been diminished as often assumed. Rather, the nature of state governance has been transformed by the emergence of more diverse and critical civil societies and the development of global risks within liberal democracies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its clear and accessible approach, this book is designed to meet the needs of both students and general readers. Key facts and figures are highlighted through boxes and charts, and the inclusion of a guide to further reading encourages deeper exploration into the subject. Faulks, a Senior Lecturer in Politics at the University of Central Lancashire, expertly navigates the complex issues shaping modern politics and society, making this a vital resource for anyone interested in understanding contemporary political sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AAKAR BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49946325778736,"sku":"Sarat_9789350027936","price":672.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/aakar-books-book-default-title-political-sociology-a-critical-introduction-41304554209584.jpg?v=1775948143","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/political-sociology-a-critical-introduction","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
