Summary "Feminist interventions in sociology are still seen as marginal to sociological theorizing. This collection challenges this truncated vision of sociological theory." "Engendering the Social is unique in that it not only critically interrogates sociological theory from a feminist perspective, but also embarks on a politics of reconstruction, working creatively at the interface of feminist and sociological theory to induce a more adequate conceptualization of the social. This is a key text for undergraduate and postgraduate students in sociology, social theory and feminist theory."--BOOK JACKET
