Project for a Scientific Sociology

This peer-reviewed book series offers insights into our current reality by exploring the content and consequences of power relationships under capitalism, and by considering the spaces of opposition and resistance to these changes that have been defining our new age. Cessante causa, cessat effectus (when the cause ceases, the effect ceases) is applicable for every existing type of social pathology. Project for a Scientific Sociology takes this as a starting point to develop an operational overview of inter-individual behavior. In this book, Joan Casser develops the research of Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell, Russian neurologist Ivan Pavlov, Swiss psychiatrist Eugen Bleuler among others, to examine energy transference in society. Prediction, motion, operant conditioning, crime, punishment, security, and law-governed behavior are reviewed socio-logically. Casser commences with worked matter and ends with the state in this causal configuration of inter-individual behavior.
