    SPORT POLICY AND POLITICS IN AN ERA OF AUSTERITY
    DAN PARNELL, PETER MILLWARD, PAUL WIDDOP, NEIL KING AND ANTHONY MAY

    WRITING THE GLOBAL CITY
    ANTHONY KING

    THE STRUCTURE OF SOCIAL THEORY
    ANTHONY KING
    Drawing on the work of Gadamer, the book demonstrates that a sociology which focuses on social relations does not imply a return to idealism, nor a retreat into individualism, nor a rejection of critique. Rather, a hermeneutic sociology which prioritises human social relations is the only coherent paradigm which is available today. The author argues that sociologists studying t...

    RELIGIOUS INDIVIDUALISATION
    RALPH HAEUSSLER AND ANTHONY KING

Conventional approaches principally focus on the political role of civic cults as a means of social cohesion, often considered to be instrumentalized by elites. But by doing so, religi...
