Sociological Review Monograph Featured on THINKING ALLOWED (Radio 4) on 29th January and 5th February 2014
Contributions from the most recent Sociological Review Monograph, SOCIOLOGIES OF MODERATION (edited by Alex Smith and John Holmwood), will feature on Radio 4's Thinking Allowed on 29 January and 5 February. While 'moderation' was once a potent social idea and ideal grounded in compelling cultural, intellectual and religious traditions, it has in recent decades fallen out of fashion as political forms engage with mass consumerism, neoliberal economics and religious fundamentalisms.
Against this background, and in an age characterised by excess and extremism, SOCIOLOGIES OF MODERATION offers a sociological reappraisal of the intellectual foundations and contemporary salience of moderation. The importance and timeliness of its arguments will be discussed on Laurie Taylor's programme.
Sociologies of Moderation presents a series of original papers that explore the origins, intellectual foundations, and relevance of moderation in 21st-century politics, religion, and society.
Reappraises an old idea--'moderation'--in order to salvage and recast it for the challenges of 21st-century politics, religion, and society
Represents an important and innovative concept for contemporary times
Brings together leading sociologists and social theorists from Britain and America as well as emerging scholars conducting original empirical research in the US, the UK, and beyond
Makes a timely contribution to contemporary debates regarding the future of democracy, expertise, and the role of the media
