Since the beginning of the modern age, studies of ongoing
transformations of social life, human sociality, and social
relations and institutions have been at the forefront of social
theory, alongside changes in politics, culture, and economy - and
links between all of the above. In the twenty-first century, the
speed at which these transformations have been occurring has
accelerated precipitously, and it is impossible to predict what
human civilization will look and exist like in a few decades. The
essays included in this volume illuminate mediations of the
individual-society relationship from a variety of angles, both
explicitly and implicitly. They highlight the need to consider the
consequences of choices made by collective decision-makers,
politicians and leaders of organizations; as well as from processes
that sustain the functioning and stability of individual
nation-states and global society, for better or worse, and to
varying degrees. They represent diverse traditions of social
theorizing, including sociological and critical theory,
analytically as well as normatively oriented theory, and examine
the impact of transformations on several dimensions of societal
life today
