Description

The introduction of the Affordable Care Act in the United States, the increasing use of prescription drugs, and the alleged abuse of racial profiling by police are just some of the factors contributing to twenty-first-century social problems. The Cambridge Handbook of Social Problems offers a wide-ranging roster of the social problems currently pressing for attention and amelioration. Unlike other works in this area, it also gives great consideration to theoretical and methodological discussions. This Handbook will benefit both undergraduate and graduate students eager to understand the sociology of social problems. It is suitable for classes in social problems, current events, and social theory. Featuring the most current research, the Handbook provides an especially useful resource for sociologists and graduate students conducting research. 03.0_pp_iv_iv_Copyright_page 04.0_pp_v_vi_Contents 05.0_pp_vii_x_About_the_Contributors 06.0_pp_xi_xii_Introduction 07.0_pp_1_182_General_Concerns_and_Orientations_in_the_Study_of_Social_Problems 07.10_pp_169_182_Prospects_for_the_Sociological_Study_of_Social_Problems 07.1_pp_3_22_The_Challenges_of_Conceptualizing_Social_Problems 07.2_pp_23_38_Research_Methods 07.3_pp_39_56_Participatory_Action_Research_and_Social_Problems 07.4_pp_57_76_Public_Policy_and_Social_Problems_Recent_Trends_in_the_Formal_Control_of_Individual_Behavior 07.5_pp_77_98_Social_Problems_in_Global_Perspective 07.6_pp_99_118_Bridging_Social_Movements_and_Social_Problems 07.7_pp_119_132_Public_Sociology_and_Social_Problems 07.8_pp_133_148_Service_Sociology_and_Social_Problems 07.9_pp_149_168_Astrosociology_Social_Problems_on_Earth_and_in_Outer_Space 08.0_pp_183_300_Historical_and_Theoretical_Issues_in_the_Study_of_Social_Problems 08.1_pp_185_202_Settlement_Sociology 08.2_pp_203_220_Chicago_School_City_as_a_Social_Laboratory 08.3_pp_221_240_Luhmanns_Sociological_Systems_Theory_and_the_Study_of_Social_Problems 08.4_pp_241_258_The_Conflict_Approach 08.5_pp_259_278_Radical_Interactionism_and_the_Symbolism_of_Methamphetamine 08.6_pp_279_300_Social_Constructionism 09.0_pp_301_474_Problems_of_Discrimination_and_Inequality 09.1_pp_303_318_Racism 09.2_pp_319_338_Immigration 09.3_pp_339_362_Gender_Inequality 09.4_pp_363_384_Sexualities_and_Homophobia 09.5_pp_385_408_Poverty_and_Income_Inequality_A_Cross-National_Perspective_on_Social_Citizenship 09.6_pp_409_422_Housing_Market_Discrimination 09.7_pp_423_440_Hunger_and_Food_Insecurity 09.8_pp_441_458_Ageism_Past_and_Present 09.9_pp_459_474_Disabilities 10.0_pp_475_566_Problems_of_Institutions 10.1_pp_477_496_Media_and_the_Construction_of_Social_Problems 10.2_pp_497_512_Family_Problems 10.3_pp_513_530_Problems_in_Education 10.4_pp_531_550_Problems_of_the_Workplace_and_Workforce 10.5_pp_551_566_Long-Term_Unemployment_in_the_United_States 11.0_pp_567_584_Index
