商品簡介
For several decades, sociologist Gerhard Lenski (emeritus, U. of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) has argued for ecological and evolutionary explanations of the development and transformation of human societies. In the first part of this text for advanced students and practitioners, he offers a systematic and comprehensive summary of his ecological-evolutionary theory. In the second section, he applies the theory to the analysis of specific situations, ranging from the founding of ancient Israel to recent (failed) experiments in Marxism.
