Isaac Reed, Jeffrey C Alexander

Culture, Society, and Democracy

The Interpretive Approach

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume addresses the key question of the intersection of sociology and politics, and asks what a non-Marxist cultural perspective can offer the Left. Written by leading scholars, it develops new conceptions of social critique, new techniques of interpretive analysis, and new concepts for the sociology of democratic practice. It is a volume for the twenty-first-century, where global and local meet, when critical theory must examine its most fundamental presuppositions.
