Marxist sociology is the study of sociology from a Marxist perspective.〔Allan G. Johnson, ''The Blackwell dictionary of sociology: a user's guide to sociological language'', Wiley-Blackwell, 2000, ISBN 0-631-21681-2, (p. 183-84 (Google Books) ).〕 Marxism itself can be recognized as both a political philosophy and a sociology, particularly so far as it attempts to remain scientific, systematic and objective rather than purely normative and prescriptive. Marxist sociology is "a form of conflict theory associated with ... Marxism's objective of developing a positive (empirical) science of capitalist society as part of the mobilization of a revolutionary working class."〔(Marxist Sociology ), ''Encyclopedia of Sociology'', Macmillan Reference, 2006.〕 The American Sociological Association has a section dedicated to the issues of Marxist sociology that is "interested in examining how insights from Marxist methodology and Marxist analysis can help explain the complex dynamics of modern society".〔(About the Section on Marxist Sociology )〕 Marxist sociology would come to facilitate the developments of critical theory and cultural studies as loosely distinct disciplines. == Concepts and issues == Key concepts of Marxist sociology include historical materialism, modes of production and the relation between capital and labour.〔 Marxist sociology is primarily concerned with, but not limited to, the relations between society and economics.〔 Key questions asked by Marxist sociology include:〔 * How does capital control workers? * How does a mode of production influence the social class? * What is the relation between workers, capital, the state and culture? * How do economic factors influence inequalities such as those relating to gender and race? Within the field of sociological theory, Marxist sociology is recognized as one of the major sociological paradigms and is associated with conflict theory and critical theory. Unlike Marxism and Marxist philosophy, Marxist sociology has put relatively little weight on creating class revolution,〔 pursuing instead the development of an objective, politico-economic study of society rather than a critical philosophy of praxis.〔 It may be seen as a field of economic sociology. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marxist sociology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
