About this ebook
Test Bank For Sociology about Art: An Introduction to How Sociologists Study the Arts is a contemporary textbook co-authored by Sara Malou Strandvad, Quirijn Lennert van den Hoogen, and Manuel Reyes. Published by Routledge, it is available globally on major platforms, including Amazon US, Amazon UK, and Amazon Canada. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
The book argues for a conceptual shift from a sociology of art to a sociology about art, aiming to integrate the actual artwork, its aesthetic form, and its meanings directly back into social research. [1, 2]
Core Theoretical Frameworks
The book is structured into three primary parts: [, 2]
- Critical Sociology: Focuses heavily on the work of Pierre Bourdieu and power dynamics in cultural consumption.
- Symbolic Interactionism: Explores Howard Becker's Artworlds, Richard Peterson's production of culture approach, and Antoine Hennion's Actor-Network Theory (ANT).
- Social Systems Theory: Examines the functionalist perspectives of Niklas Luhmann and Hans van Maanen. []
Key Details
- Target Audience: Designed as an accessible textbook for students and scholars of sociology, the creative industries, and cultural policy. [1, 2]
- Key Innovation: Bridges the gap between traditional social structures (studying institutions, markets, and networks) and the actual sensory and aesthetic dimension of art objects. [, 2]
