This balanced, mainstream, totally up-to-date text is characterized by its focus on the connection between oneself and the social world. It teaches students "how" to think, rather than just "what" to think, draws the connection between objectivity and subjectivity in sociological research, and places an emphasis on the importance of diversity and the global perspective. Students have to navigate a world that is increasingly complex and confusing. SOCIOLOGY: YOUR COMPASS FOR A NEW WORLD will help them do just that. Bob Brym and John Lie wrote this book to show undergraduate students that sociology can help them make sense of their lives, however uncertain they may appear to be. By revealing the opportunities and constraints students face, the book helps them know themselves and see what they can become in this particular social and historical context.

Twenty-five years ago the cultural values of Canadians were believed to be largely responsible for the country's patterns of economic development, politics, and inequality. Today, these patterns are explained in terms of the way power is distributed. In this study, Brym and Fox attribute the shift in viewpoint to the growing influence of various currents of Marxism and feminism in Canadian sociology. In light of these trends, they analyze the Marxist critique of conventional sociology in the 1970s and the feminist critique of Marxist sociology in the 1980s.
