"Max Weber’s Construction of Social Theory" by Martin Albrow
[ send me this paper ]
Martin Albrow, in his book Max Weber’s Construction of Social Theory, argues that Max Weber provides a long-neglected foundation for sociology, and that the arguments of Weber can be utilized in understanding the sociological premises of a number of other theorists, including Kant and Nietzche. Further, Albrow relates the arguments of Weber to the assertion of the value of sociology as a science, and also defines the link between
the premises of social theory and the development of social philosophy, social psychology and the logical correlation between the two. This 4 page paper reflects the essential arguments in Albrow’s work and considers the implications for evaluating sociological, philosophical and psychological underpinnings. No additional sources cited.

Modern Social Theory
[ send me this paper ]
The "modern" world has different meaning for different
individuals and different studies. Most would agree that it encompasses the period from the beginning of the First World War until the present. For Social theorists, "modern"
must connote the most recent era of significant social change. The unique role of social theorists within this concept of modern society will be: first, to explain the interaction of technology with the evolution of social interaction and, second, to pursue new avenues of human development; perhaps in the incorporation of technology into the heretofore human processes. This 5 page paper examines a few of the social theories pertinent to
current thought and proposes how the factors inherent to these theories will be of importance to the evolving modern era. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

"Mortality is Not Relative": James Rachels' Views on the Theory of Cultural Relativism
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page exploration of Rachels beliefs in regard to what determines certain cultural practices and whether or not there are inherent rights and wrongs in those practices. More specifically, Rachels
explores the question of whether morality is a phenomena that varies according to culture, whether different cultures do in fact operate under
different moral codes. Rachels points out that many cultures even diverge greatly from our Western precepts of right and wrong. He is particularly interested in the theory of cultural relativism, that theory that demands that we view behavior and situations in a world context rather than from the closely defined views of one culture. Rachels sees both positives and negatives in that theory, however. No additional sources are listed.
