Sociology has been exploring the intricate relationship between society and individuals since its inception, and the concept of "socialization" has been analyzed from various perspectives by prominent thinkers. Socialization provides a comprehensive overview of these perspectives, drawing from both classic works of key theorists and contemporary research that has either developed or challenged these ideas. The book argues that while socialization has sometimes been perceived as an outdated, static approach, it remains highly relevant and continues to offer valuable insights into how we develop our actions and thoughts.

Drawing on a diverse range of empirical examples, the book offers a lively and accessible account of primary and secondary socialization, exploring how they interrelate. By viewing socialization as a continuous process that spans throughout an individual's life course, the book highlights the dynamic and enduring ways in which the social world shapes and reshapes individuals. This exploration sheds valuable light on the impact of factors such as class, gender, race, inequality, and domination on individuals' lives.

Socialization is of interest to students and scholars in sociology, as well as other disciplines such as psychology and education. The book offers a valuable resource for those seeking to understand the complex dynamics between society and individuals, and its insights will contribute to a deeper understanding of the world around us.
