On the structure of social action

The book of one of the largest and most interesting sociologists of the 20th century T. Parsons is devoted to the theoretical development of the key concepts for the American sociologist. It is primarily about the concept of social action as an ontological unit and a core for all social sciences of the concept. In this context, the original concept of sociology as a science is built, which includes the general theory of the social system and the theory of social stratification.
Parsons analyzes the existing concepts of social action, scrupulously and in detail works out all the conceptual blocks and schemes involved in them, with their many branches. And he comes to an unexpected conclusion: he discovered in this variety a single paradigm called by him "theory of social action".
The publication is intended for sociologists, political scientists, philologists and culturalists
