Exploring the Sociology of Europe by Maurice Roche

Exploring the Sociology of Europe by Maurice Roche

Timely and engaging, this is the first book to really map out and develop the emerging field of the sociology of Europe.

′This is a major and much needed sociological analysis of Europe

Roche captures very well the emerging shape of European society in all

its complexity. It is an immensely readable book and will undoubtedly be a standard work of reference
Gerard Delanty
Professor of Sociology and Social & Political Thought, University of Sussex

′Maurice Roche has made an arresting case for taking the sociology of Europe seriously. In a lucid and penetrating book he both invites scholarly debate with his arguments and provides an exemplary starting-point for a new generation of students
Professor Philip Schlesinger
Director, Centre for Cultural Policy Research, University of Glasgow
