    Abstract: People inescapably are shaped by the culture in which they live, while culture itself is made and remade by people. Human beings in their daily lives feel a genuine freedom of thought and belief, yet this is unavoidably constrained by cultural limitations -- such as those by language spoken, the knowledge developed and the information available at any time. This is a revised edition and a seminal contribution to social theory and the case for the role of culture in sociological thought. Described as a timely and sophisticated treatment, the book shows that the problems of culture and agency and structure and agency could be solved using the same analytical framework.

    Abstract: Margaret Archer's Culture and Agency was first published in 1988, and proved a seminal contribution to social theory and the case for the role of culture in sociological thought. Described in Sociological Review as 'a timely and sophisticated treatment', the book showed that the 'problems' of culture and agency, on the one hand, and structure and agency, on the other, could be solved using the same analytical framework. In this revised edition of Culture and Agency, Margaret Archer contextualises her argument in 1990s cultural sociology and links it explicitly to her latest book, Realist Social Theory: The Morphogenetic Approach (Cambridge University Press, 1995)
    Description / Table of Contents: 1 -- The Myth of Cultural Integration -- 2 -- 'Downwards conflation': on keys, codes and cohesion -- 3 -- 'Upwards conflation': the manipulated consensus -- 4 -- 'Central conflation': the duality of culture -- The different forms of conflation and their deficiencies: a summary of Part I -- 5 -- Addressing the Cultural System -- 6 -- Contradictions and complementarities in the Cultural System -- 7 -- Socio-Cultural interaction -- 8 -- Elaboration of the Cultural System -- 9 -- Towards theoretical unification: structure, culture and morphogenesis -- 10 -- 'Social integration and System integration'

    Abstract: Building on her seminal contribution to social theory in Culture and Agency, in this 1995 book Margaret Archer develops her morphogenetic approach, applying it to the problem of structure and agency. Since structure and agency constitute different levels of stratified social reality, each possesses distinctive emergent properties which are real and causally efficacious but irreducible to one another. The problem, therefore, is shown to be how to link the two rather than conflate them, as has been common theoretical practice. Realist Social Theory: The Morphogenetic Approach not only rejects methodological individualism and holism, but argues that the debate between them has been replaced by a new one, between elisionary theorising and emergentist theories based on a realist ontology of the social world. The morphogenetic approach is the sociological complement of transcendental realism, and together they provide a basis for non-conflationary theorizing which is also of direct utility to the practising social analyst
    Description / Table of Contents: 1. The vexatious fact of society ---- Part I. The Problem of Structure and Agency: Four Alternative Solutions. 2. Individualism versus collectivism: querying the terms of the debate --- 3. Taking time to link structure and agency --- 4. Elision and central conflation --- 5. Realism and morphogenesis ---- Part II. The Morphogenetic Cycle. 6. Analytical dualism: the basis of the morphogenetic approach --- 7. Structural and cultural conditioning --- 8. The morphogenesis of agency --- 9. Social elaboration
