Generations of influential thinkers passed through the course, and it took on an almost mythic stature on the left and throughout the discipline of sociology. Though it evolved over time, the guiding principles remained the same: claims about how the world works ought to be testable. Values can guide research but must never cloud scientific conclusions. And if you really understand an idea or phenomenon, then you should be able to explain it in simple language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSociological Marxism\u003c\/i\u003e guides readers through the most convincing theories explaining many of the most confounding political, social, and economic questions.
