Publisher's Synopsis
For courses in Social Problems
Help students view society from a conflict perspectiveRevel(TM) In Conflict and Order: Understanding Society examines society from a conflict perspective, prompting students to ponder one of the central questions of sociology: Who benefits from the existing customs and social order, and who does not? Via their conflict-centered approach, authors D. Stanley Eitzen, Kelly Eitzen Smith, and Maxine Baca Zinn offer a realistic appraisal of society and lead students to think critically about existing social arrangements with an eye toward restructuring society along more humane lines. The 15th Edition has been updated with the latest statistics as well as coverage of contemporary trends such as the changing economy to help students achieve a thorough understanding of social problems today.
