作者认为,社会学要求我们放眼全世界的同时,要思考这样的问题:我们如何行动可以让世界变得更美好?他主张用实践智慧的视角,从社会方面去阐释价值和实践之间的矛盾。一旦我们对差异性的后果,不平等的模式和原则与实践有所了解,我们有责任有所作为。
我们可以用社会学的工具来帮助我们和我们身处的世界展开对话,求同存异,看到我们的盲点。虽然在这里包含了很多我们不想面对的现实,例如由物资资源、社会资源、文化资源分配而形成的社会阶级将影响我们的行动、机会和选择。但是,拒不承认生活的污点,就是一种掩耳盗铃,将我们的社会现实隐藏在虚伪的共性之下。
这本书的作者JonWitt认为:社会学旨在对这两个问题提供答案。尽管其他学科也试图做出回答,但社会学提供的分析视角,既有更大的.包容性,又有更大的密切性。
这本《社会学的邀请》面向普罗大众,提供了全景看社会和聚焦于社会上的人的视角,进而对人与社会的关系,差异化的后果进行细致的分析,让我们了解:我们的行为如何塑造了我们周围的世界,而我们又是如何被我们生活其中的世界所塑造的。
他期望我们接触过社会学之后,不再以以前的方式去看这个世界,并期望它能改变我们关于我是谁及应如何去做的认识。进一步说,这本书能为我们提供一种工具,让我们走出原来的生活世界,发挥自己的能动性,建立一个更美好的家园。
而我从这本书里学到了三点:

Next Monday is my 20th birthday. Imagine, there are already twenty years behind me! No wonder I feel old! My parents are giving a dinner party to mark the party. The first person they wish to invite is you, my childhood pal. Indeed, all of those 20 years are more or less associated with you. We'll be expecting you any time after six.
