Focusing on contemporary social theory, George Ritzer explores the complexities of sociology as a multiparadigm science, addressing the challenges posed by competing paradigms. He offers insights into metatheory, aiming to clarify confusion among students and sociologists alike. Ritzer proposes a new integrated sociological paradigm, illustrating its application to issues such as rationalization theory, professional integration, consumer culture, and hyperrationality, ultimately reflecting on the current state of sociology.
