Description: Social Transformations : A General Theory of Historical Development, Hardcover by Sanderson, Stephen K., ISBN 084769187X, ISBN-13 9780847691876, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Continues the work Sanderson (sociology, Indiana U. of Pennsylvania) began with his 1990 Social Evolutionism by outlining an evolutionary interpretation of world history that he calls evolutionary materialism. He focuses on what appears to him the most important transformations in human history: the neolithic revolution, the origin of civilization and the state, and the transition from feudalism to capitalism that ushered in the modern world in western Europe and Japan. To the first edition, for which he mentions no date, he has appended an abbreviated account of how the theory can incorporate biological constraints; he intends to treat that more fully in the future.
