松本和良博士的这本著作,是论述一般称作后期帕森斯理论(70年代理论)的为数不多的详细研究之一。正如标题所示,本书主要研究帕森斯的行为体系理论(第1章至第8章)。但是,本书并不局限于对帕森斯的研究。松本同伟大先驱者新明正道博士一样,通过对帕森斯理论的批判而提出自己的社会理论的构想。松本写本书的目的在于将帕森斯理论与新明理论进行综合研究。 This book by Matsumoto and Dr. Liang discusses one of the few detailed studies generally known as Parsons’ theory of the late 1970s. As the title suggests, this book focuses on Parsons’s behavioral system theory (Chapters 1 through 8). However, this book is not limited to the study of Parsons. Matsumoto, like his great pioneer, Dr. Shin-Minam Masahiro, proposed his own theory of society through his critique of Parsons’ theory. The purpose of Matsumoto’s writing book is to conduct a comprehensive study of Parsons’ theory and the theory of the new China.
