Reviews sociological theory from a contemporary perspective
Reveals how the universal theorist and the era of rival schools has been replaced by networks of clustered debates that are relatively 'autonomous' and interdisciplinary
Features updates and in-depth discussions of the newest clustered debates in social theory—intimacy, postcolonial nationalism, and the concept of 'the other'
Challenges social scientists to renew their commitment to the important moral and political role social knowledge plays in public life
