The Structure Of Social Action: A study in social theory with Special Reference to a group of Recent European Writers

By Talcott Parsons

From the preface: “…The keynote to be emphasized is perhaps given in the subtitle of the book; it is a study in social theory, not theories. Its interest is not in the separate and discrete propositions to be found in the works of these men, but in a single body of systematic theoretical reasoning the development of which can be traced through a critical analysis of the writings of this group, and of certain of their predecessors.”
