===Content=== * Are there other canonical texts we're not getting to? ** What about Marx, Weber, Durkheim? ** Adam Smith, Darwin, Foucault? ** Aristotle, Hobbes, Mill? ::*All of these are possible to get from other places including in any number of social theory courses offered at UW. I think I'd have a preference for doing something closer to specifics of what we study but that still has very broad appeal. Olson's [[:wikipedia:The Logic of Collective Action]], Marwell and Oliver's [https://philpapers.org/rec/MARTCM-13 The Critical Mass in Collective Action], and/or Axelrod's [[:wikipedia:The Evolution of Cooperation]]. A more controversial suggestion would be Kropotkin's [[:wikipedia:Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution]] β<b>[[User:Benjamin Mako Hill|<font color="#C40099">m</font><font color="#600099">a</font><font color="#2D0399">k</font><font color="#362365">o</font>]][[User_talk:Benjamin Mako Hill|<font color="#000000">ΰΉ</font>]]</b> :::*I'm not familiar with any of these but they do seem pretty appealing based on their descriptions, and I'll keep my eye out for opportunities to sojourn into less-adjacent canons from the broader UW. [[User:Kaylea|Kaylea]] ([[User talk:Kaylea|talk]]) 01:27, 16 March 2019 (EDT) * Maybe this is too close to the wrong canon, but I keep running into Coleman and Schelling and would like to do a more comprehensive read.[[User:Kaylea|Kaylea]] ([[User talk:Kaylea|talk]]) 18:58, 11 April 2019 (EDT) * Claude Shannon (or at least someone else's summary of information theory) [[User:Aaronshaw|Aaronshaw]] ([[User talk:Aaronshaw|talk]]) 16:38, 7 May 2019 (EDT) * Hayek (on information) [[User:Aaronshaw|Aaronshaw]] ([[User talk:Aaronshaw|talk]]) 16:39, 7 May 2019 (EDT) * Merton, Blau [[Special:Contributions/205.175.106.173|205.175.106.173]] 20:42, 7 May 2019 (EDT) ::: If we want to read something ecological I would pick "organizations evolving" by Reuf and Aldrich. It may be a bit too high level and its kind of a textbook. I'd also be excited to do Marx, Weber, Durkheim. Another idea for a social theory book is "Constructing Social Theories" by Stinchcomb. [[User:Groceryheist|Groceryheist]] ([[User talk:Groceryheist|talk]]) 18:24, 5 June 2019 (EDT) * Giddens, A. (1984). The constitution of society: outline of the theory of structuration. University of California Press. * Something by Wanda Orlikowski [[User:Sneha|Sneha]] ([[User talk:Sneha|talk]]) 11:49, 6 June 2019 (EDT) * Jo Freeman's Tyranny of Structurelessness [[User:Sneha|Sneha]] ([[User talk:Sneha|talk]]) 11:49, 6 June 2019 (EDT) * Jessica Nembhard's Collective Courage: A History of African American Cooperative Economic Thought and Practice [[User:Sneha|Sneha]] ([[User talk:Sneha|talk]]) 11:49, 6 June 2019 (EDT) * Francesa Polletta's Freedom is an Endless Meeting [[User:Sneha|Sneha]] ([[User talk:Sneha|talk]]) 11:49, 6 June 2019 (EDT)
