Produktbeschreibung
Written by a pioneer of this theoretical approach, this astonishing book promises to question the whole direction of social sciences methodology and makes essential reading for social sciences and humanities researchers and postgraduates. It revolves around three key functions: * it introduces the rather dispersed discussion of non-representational theory to a wider audience * it questions the whole direction of social sciences, methodologically, epistemologically and ontologically * it provides more productive approaches to the social sciences. A groundbreaking and comprehensive introduction to this key topic, Thrift's outstanding work brings together for the first time a body of work that has come to be known as non-representational theory. Although well-known in the social sciences, these theories have never before been assembled in one volume. Thrift's noteworthy book therefore, makes a significant contribution to the literature in this area.
