Description
The current state of social exchange theory is assessed in this collection of original papers. The volume has contributions from James S Coleman, Peter M Blau and the late Richard Emerson - founders of social exchange theory in the 1960s - and from young scholars who are expanding the frontiers of the theoretical framework. Jon Turner rounds off this important volume with a critique of social exchange theory as presented by the contributors. As an up-to-date analysis of this major strand of social theory, this volume is unrivalled and has wide appeal.
