Synopsis
Four themes infuse the conflict perspective orientation of this book: diversity, the struggle to achieve social justice, economic and global transformations in the U.S., This conflict perspective introductory paperback text emphasizes four themes: diversity, the struggle to achieve social justice, economic and global transformations in the U.S., and a global perspective. In Conflict and Order studies the forces that lead to both stability and change in society. As it examines the standard topics in an introductory course, the authors show how social problems are structural in origin. While the pace of social change is increasing, society's institutions are resistant to change. Eitzen and Baca Zinn challenge students to develop a sociological perspective by questioning their own basic beliefs, and to debate the facts rather than merely accepting the authors' way of looking at the world.

    Used book as described, packed well for shipping and shipped promptly. Seller went the absolute distance in describing this used book. I particularly wanted this edition. From the photos and description of this item for sale, I was certain I would receive exactly what I was expecting and paid for. If I could give more than 5 Stars I would. Definitely would buy from this Seller again.

    The Sunbeam mixer arrived today. You did such a great packing job that everything arrived safe and sound. The mixer is just like the one my cousin had that always said I should have been her child. She passed away in 2000. It proves to be of great value due to it still runs after all the years. Thanks.
