In this major new book, the author of the bestselling McDonaldization of Society provides an exploration of one of the most innovative and imaginative sociological theses of the last decade of the twentieth century - `McDonaldization'. Part One centres on a discussion of Karl Mannheims theory of rationalization. The author also assesses the degree to which sociology in general and sociological theory in particular have been `McDonaldized. The second part demonstrates the empirical reach of the `McDonaldization process with discussions on work, credit and globalization. Part Three moves beyond `McDonaldization to the worlds of `new means of consumption and the postmodern perspectives that best illuminate them. The author concludes with a re-evaluation of the McDonaldization thesis and its future.
