What comes after 'postmodernism'? A buzzword which began as an
energising, radical critique became, by the 20th Century's end, a
byword for fracture, eclecticism, political apathy and intellectual
exhaustion. The last few years have seen a growing interest in
critical realism as a possible, alternative way of moving forward.
The virtues of critical realism lie in its successful provision of
a philosophical grounding for the social sciences and humanities
and of a methodology applicable to many different fields of
analysis. After Postmodernism brings together some of the
best-known names in the field to present the first truly
interdisciplinary introduction to critical realism. The book
presents the reader with a compendium of accessible essays
illustrating the connection between meta-theory, theory and
substantive research across Sociology, Philosophy, Literary
Studies, Politics, Media Studies, Psychology and Science Studies.;
The flexibility of critical realism is illustrated in the range of
topics discussed - ranging from quantum mechanics to cyberspace, to
literary theory, nature, smoking, the future of Marx, the
unconscious and, of course, postmodernism and the future of theory
