In Postsocial History: An Introduction, historian Miguel A. Cabrera
points to the crisis of modernity as a locus for the collapse of
social historical models. Previously established theories of social
change and social relations are proving insufficient, calling for
the emergence of a new social historical theory. Cabrera finds the
answer in language, which, more than being a mere communicative
tool, he believes to be capable of playing an active role in the
forces of social change. Postsocial History is a lucid and
unprecedented account of the need for a new, modern theoretical
model. By arguing convincingly for the inclusion of language in
that model, Cabrera awakens a revolutionary new approach to
historiography. This book will prove indispensable to historians,
and to social scientists in general, who are dissatisfied with the
old paradigms and seek new ways of addressing the challenges of
social research.
