Public Relations and Social Theory: Key Figures, Concepts and
Developments broadens the theoretical scope of public relations
studies by applying the work of a group of prominent social theorists
to make sense of the practice. The volume focuses on the work of key
social theorists, including Max Weber, Karl Marx, John Dewey, Jürgen
Habermas, Niklas Luhmann, Michel Foucault, Ulrich Beck, Pierre
Bourdieu, Anthony Giddens, Robert Putnam, Erving Goffman, Peter L.
Berger, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Bruno Latour, Dorothy Smith,
Zygmunt Bauman, Harrison White, John W. Meyer, Luc Boltanski and
Chantal Mouffe. Each chapter is devoted to an individual theorist,
providing an overview of that theorist’s key concepts and
contributions, and exploring how these can be applied to public
relations as a practice. Each chapter also includes a box giving a
short and concise presentation of the theorist, along with
recommendation of key works and secondary literature.
