Social Theory
This book builds upon some of the classical sociological theory and presents a wide range of diverse and interesting perspectives, several of which continue to evolve and influence contemporary policy makers, protest cultures and even advertising executives.
Studying social theory consists of more than revisiting the collected works of long dead white European men whose work has been pored over by generations of students. The classical sociological tradition certainly needs acknowledging and this book will do this, but social theory matters now in the present, and much of the material covered here resonates with contemporary concerns.

IDENTIFYING WITH THE ORGANISATION.
This book examines the interrelationship between employer and employee goals. This arose through the need for organisations to embrace more flexible forms of labour market, and the requisite economic need to increase productivity through fewer, more loyal, employees who identified with corporate goals and practices.
This is analysed within the view of the organisation as an emergent form, grounded in the imperative of maximising the commitment of employees to the enterprise through sharing the organisations identity. Within this the concept of identity is imperative to understanding the processes through which employees are being integrated into the organisational ethos.
The data argues traditional instrumental effort-bargains have given way to a more identity oriented approach. The data illustrates how the identities of individual employees are both influenced by the organisation and also driven by the changing nature of work in society in general.
