A Near Fine Set Except Volumeone Has Been Damaged/Frayed Along Top Edge Of Spine And Spine Cloth Is Split 2 3/4" Down On Right From Top Of Spine And Volume 4 Spine Cloth Is Split 4 1/2" On Right Side . Per Wikipedia Pitirim Alexandrovich Sorokin 1889 -1968 Was A Russian American Sociologist And Political Activist Who Contributed To The Social Cycle Theory. In 1910 Young Sorokin Was Shaken To The Core By The Death Of The Great Russian Writer Leo Tolstoy. In The Article "Ln Tolstoy As A Philosopher" 1912 He Carried Out A Reconstruction Of The Religious And Moral Teaching Of Tolstoy Which He Regarded As The Philosophical Representation Of A Harmonious And Logical System Sorokin 1912: 80-97. Sorokin Was An Anti-Communist. During The Russian Revolution He Was A Member Of The Socialist Revolutionary Party A Deputy Of The Russian Constituent Assembly A Supporter Of The White Movement And A Secretary To Prime Minister Alexander Kerensky. After The October Revolution Sorokin Continued To Fight Communist Leaders And Was Arrested By The New Regime Several Times Before He Was Eventually Condemned To Death. After Six Weeks In Prison Sorokin Was Released And Went Back To Teaching At The University Of Saint Petersburg Becoming The Founder Of The Sociology Department At The University. As He Had Been A Leader Among The Democrats Leading Up To The Russian Revolution He Was Sought By Vladimir Lenin's Forces After Lenin Consolidated His Power. Accounts Of Sorokin's Activities In 1922 Differ; He May Have Been Arrested And Exiled By The Soviet Government Or He May Have Spent Months In Hiding Before Escaping The Country. After Leaving Russia He Emigrated To The United States Where He Became A Naturalized Citizen In 1930. Sorokin Was A Sociology Professor At The University Of Minnesota From 1924 To 1929 When He Accepted An Offer Of A Position By The President Of Harvard University To Join The Harvard Faculty Where He Continued To Work Until 1959. After Going To Harvard In 1930 Sorokin Found His Calling And Began His Famous Study Of World Civilization Which Led To The Work For Which He Is Best Known Social And Cultural Dynamics. This Work Set The Tone For The Condemnation Of Our Sensate Culture Which Is Prominent In All Of Sorokin's Writings Since 1937. Sorokin's Academic Writings Are Extensive; He Wrote 37 Books And More Than 400 Articles.3 His Controversial Theories Of Social Process And The Historical Typology Of Cultures Are Expounded In Social And Cultural Dynamics 4 Vol. 1937-41; Rev. And Abridged Ed. 1957 And Many Other Works. Sorokin Was Also Interested In Social Stratification The History Of Sociological Theory And Altruistic Behavior. Sorokin's Work Follows A Pattern Throughout Time From An Early Period Of Miscellaneous Writings Sociocultural Dynamics And Social Criticism And Then Altruism. Sorokin's Extensive Study Convinced Him That Our Civilization Is Overly Materialistic Disorganized And In Imminent Danger Of Collapse. His Works Are Timeless Due To The Fact They Were Able To Open Up New Fields Of Study And Make Way For More Innovative Ways Of Thinking. His Works Covered A Wide Variety Of Topics From Rural Sociology War Revolution Social Mobility And Social Change. He Was One Of The Signatories Of The Agreement To Convene A Convention For Drafting A World Constitution. As A Result For The First Time In Human History A World Constituent Assembly Convened To Draft And Adopt The Constitution For The Federation Of Earth. <br/> <br/> The Bedminster Press hardcover‎
