    What Assumptions Do You Make About the Nature of Society and the Purpose of Social Theory

    "Theory is a way of seeing and not seeing the world" says Alan in his "Explorations of Classical Sociological Theory" book. This supports my idea of society's perceptions being dominant over one's intentions, and the idea of social themes being played out differently according to the period and political factors affecting different theorists at the time.
