The triangular relationship between the social, the political, and
the cultural has opened up social and political theory to new
challenges. The social can no longer be reduced to the category of
society, and the political extends beyond the traditional concerns
of the nature of the state and political authority. This Handbook
will address a range of issues that have recently emerged from the
disciplines of social and political theory, focusing on key themes
as opposed to schools of thought or major theorists. It is divided
into three sections which address: the most influential theoretical
traditions that have emerged from the legacy of the twentieth
century; the most important new and emerging frameworks of analysis
today; the major theoretical problems in recent social and
political theory. The Second edition is an enlarged, revised, and
updated version of the first edition, which was published in 2011
and comprised 42 chapters. The new edition consists of 50 chapters,
of which seventeen are entirely new chapters covering topics that
have become increasingly prominent in social and political theory
in recent years, such as populism, the new materialism,
postcolonialism, Deleuzean theory, post-humanism, post-capitalism
as well as older topics that were not covered in the first edition,
such as Arendt, the gift, critical realism, anarchism. All chapters
retained from the first edition have been thoroughly revised and
updated. The Routledge International Handbook of Contemporary
Social and Political Theory encompasses the most up-to-date
developments in contemporary social and political theory, and as
such is an essential research tool for both undergraduate and
postgraduate students as well as researchers working in the fields
of political theory, social and political philosophy, contemporary
social theory, and cultural theory.
