By exploring such diverse issues as the management of child abuse,
legal reforms following sex abuse enquiries, moral explanations for
the actions of child murderers, the impossible task faced by social
workers and the limitations of children's rights campaigns, Michael
King examines the revolutionary ideas of the social theorist,
Niklas Luhmann. He demonstrates how Luhmann's theory of
authopoietic systems compels readers to re-examine exactly what
they mean by society.
Questioning the relationship between personal morality and
political will, it challenges the assumption that changing society
is merely a matter of changing attitudes and highlights the
pitfalls associated with formulating social reform.
