Sociological theory
How do people seek the good life, and how do they strive towards it? This book presents Aristotelian Balance Theory (ABT), a sociological and socio-ethical attempt to systematise questions of the good life, human flourishing and societal governance. ABT is developed here as a heuristic attempt at grand theory that could potentially serve as a federation for sociological research. 375,000 words.
How can social life and sociology support the good life? This book explores what happens when sociology not only analyses people’s circumstances, but also develops therapeutic practices to help people understand and change their lives in relation to the social world in which they are embedded. 170,000 words.
