He distinguishes different types of societies while simultaneously showing elements common to all societies. In a new epilogue being added to this edition, titled \"Modernization Exhumed,\" the author alleges that criticism of modernization theory has generally been ideological or otherwise nonscientific. He provides a strong defense of his hypothesis. In his new introduction, he concentrates on the concept of interdependency. \u003cem\u003eModernization and the Structure of Societies\u003c\/em\u003e is crucial to the understanding of contemporary international problems.
