Sociology 2012

There’s no better place to get Handbooks with interdisciplinary appeal than Routledge Sociology.

Last year we published titles on identity, human rights, and contemporary social and political theory. In 2012 we’ll be tackling topics like migration, food studies, and social and environmental change.

All of our Handbooks offer insights into issues that span a wide range of topics, from medicine, to international relations, to ecology, to sociology itself-these titles help you explore the interconnectedness of the modern world.
