Global sociology : itroducing five contemporary societies

---

There are many ways to arrange human lives—different kinds of families, economies, and governments; and endlessly varied values, beliefs, norms, and customs. Using a comparative framework, Global Sociology: Introducing Five Contemporary Societies, Sixth Edition, provides a broad and comprehensive sociological description of Japan, Mexico, Egypt, Germany, and the San peoples of Namibia.

World events move quickly and the Sixth Edition is a major revision. Significant new material includes:
1. Japan's response to the recent earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear
catastrophe and how it was conditioned by Japanese values and
norms, population patterns, and political dynamics.
2. Mexico's "war" on drug gangs and its consequences for popular
culture, the effectiveness of democratic institutions, and the life
choices available to youth.
3. Namibia's indigenous San people and their adaptation to economic
and social change as Namibia privatizes land and promotes tourism.
4. Egypt's Spring 2011 revolution, and what it reveals about youth,
democracy, religion, economic inequality, and gender politics.
5. Germany's response to globalization: immigrants and German
culture, ethnicity and national identity, and the European Union.
