112K0

This book explores the emergence and development of the field we call "society." People understand the world through "society", but rarely reflect on the concept of "society" itself. Evans, the author of this book, reminds us that "society" is a product of modern human history, starting in Europe and triggering repercussions and even resistance around the world in 500 years. The author quotes extensively, not only showing the ideological achievements of traditional historical research and sociology, but also integrating art, literature, philosophy, politics and real-life examples. His vision spans more than five centuries and comprehensively presents a social history of "society" itself. This book is full of arguments, rich in theory, beautiful in writing, and well-founded, so that people can get ideological enlightenment.
