Abstract "The "sociological neo-institutionalism" of this volume is a creature of, reaction to, and interpreter of society in the post-war period. The line of thought developed in the 1970s. It emphasizes the way that the "actors" of contemporary society-often taken for granted in both common discourse and (unfortunately) social theory-can usefully be seen as constructions of an evolving rationalistic and individualistic culture"-- Provided by publisher.
