Zygmunt Bauman is one of the most inspirational and controversial
thinkers on the scene of contemporary sociology. For several
decades he has provided compelling analyses and diagnoses of a vast
variety of aspects of modern and liquid modern living. This book
considers the theoretical significance of his contribution to
sociology, but also discusses and adopts a critical stance towards
his work. The Sociology of Zygmunt Bauman introduces and critically
appraises some of the most significant as well as some of the
lesser known of Bauman's contributions to contemporary sociology.
An international team of scholars delineates and discusses how
Bauman's treatment of these themes challenges conventional wisdom
in sociology, thereby revising and revitalizing sociological
theory. As a special feature, the book concludes with Bauman's
intriguing reflections and contemplations on his own life and
intellectual trajectory, published here for the first time in
English. In this postscript aptly entitled 'Pro Domo Sua' ('About
Myself'), he describes the pushes and pulls that throughout the
years have shaped his thinking.
