Viewing our society from a conflict perspective.
Taking a conflict approach, Social Problems, 13e examines social
problems, how they are interrelated to other problems, and society's
role in their creation and perpetuation. This textaddresses interesting
subjects, such as corporate crime, urban decay, poverty and the changing
economy.
The thirteenth edition focuses more deliberately on five major themes:
the structural sources of social problems; the role of the United States
in global social problems; the centrality of class, race, gender,
sexuality, and disability as sources of division, inequality, and
injustice; the critical examination of society; and solutions to social
problems.
