Abstract: In this book, the varied issues faced by society in the late twentieth century are investigated through fifteen chapters by some of the leading scholars from the London School of Economics. The wide range of subjects represents the continuing debate about how social science theory can be applied to the world's problems. Socialism, unemployment, the market economy, welfare, wealth, poverty, nationalism, crime, and the media are all considered as problems of a world in transition. On Social Science presents challenging and unconventional ideas about our future.
