cultural analysis. The selections and editor's notes offer a
mapping of the field that will ehlp students and scholars alike
find their ways." John R. Hall, University of California at
Davis

"Lyn Spillman has rendered an enormous service to one of the
most important developments in American social science, the full
incorporation of the cultural dimension into its frameworks of
analysis. It will be extremely valuable for students and for the
profession as a whole." Vera Zolberg, New School
