(syllabus)
PROGRAM The first part of the program will focus on the fundamental concepts of the discipline: - How political sociology is born and what it studies - State, power and authority - Socialization, participation and political recruitment - Political communication and public opinion - Ideology - How societies change
The main theories will then be examined in more detail: - Max Weber's sociological theory - Marxism - Political theory of Elitism - Political theory of Pluralism - Structural functionalism
While in the last - monographic - part of the course, the socialization, the recruitment and the political culture of the young administrators of Lazio will be analyzed, to better understand - through a case study - the process of change underway.
