Description: The book is an authoritative assessment of Norbert Elias (1897 1990). The volume recognizes Elias as one of the major contributors to the development of the sociological tradition in the past century and charts the continuing relevance of his conception of sociology for contemporary society. Only toward the end of his career as an academic did Elias's work begin to attract the attention of English - speaking sociologists historians and scholars of cultural studies. It is a broad representation of Elias's oeuvre and work inspired by it. While Elias is best known for his major study of The Civilizing Process the reach and subtle depths of Elias's conception of process sociology has been cemented more recently by the English - language publication of Elias's collected work of 18 volumes. The baton of process sociology is being passed on to further generations of sociologists. As a learning process sociologists develop this inheritance in new and stimulating ways by situating the most pressing changes and continuities facing human societies in long - term perspective. Chapters from leading contributors outline the nature of the sociological practice of Elias and address fundamental questions of historical sociology democratization gender racialization processes and embodiment. Later chapters highlight the contribution of process sociology for understanding developments in nation state and global sociology criminology art and education.
