Revisting Knowledge

My classical social theory class had us revisit theorists that we often hear their names and roll our eyes (marx/weber/durkheim) but an interesting excercise today had us explore the wider scope of theorists and how they fit in the scope of social theory.

What started out in an excercise of deconstructing the 'geneological' selection of authors on a Sociology textbook, turned into a test of knowledge (and memory) of social theory. We now get to create our own geneological tree of social theorists. Let's see how well I was listening over the last three years.
