Theorizing Modernity

Více o knize

By examining the philosophical foundations of social inquiry, this book contends that sociology has neglected critical analysis of the human condition. It highlights five essential questions related to inescapability and attainability: the certainty of knowledge, the viability of politics, the continuity of self, the accessibility of the past, and the transparency of the future. Through a historical lens, it explores how these questions have been approached over the last 200 years and their relevance in contemporary discourse.
