This book proposes a reconstruction of contemporary social theory,
focusing on thematic issues rather than on authors or schools of
thought. In so doing, it endeavours to bridge epistemological
approaches and locate critical claims shared by the main
trajectories and notions of sociological theoretical debate. The
book explores the current forms of social science theorization
through the key themes of Agency, Anthropocene, Coloniality,
Intersectionality, Othering, Singularization, Technoscience and
Uncertainty. Focusing on these key themes, it highlights their
usefulness for discussions of inequality, neoliberalism,
eurocentrism, androcentrism or anthropocentrism - in order to
examine these issues in a new light and look beyond the classic
divides of social theory. Intended for an academic audience
interested in social theory, scholars and post-graduate students in
sociology, social sciences, anthropology, social geography, social
psychology and globalization studies will find this book useful.
