Social functions and functional explanations play a prominent role
not only in our everyday reasoning but also in classical as well as
contemporary social theory and empirical social research. This
volume explores metaphysical, normative, and methodological
perspectives on social functions and functional explanations in the
social sciences. It aims to push the philosophical debate on social
functions forward along new investigative lines by including
up-to-date discussions of the metaphysics of social functions,
questions concerning the nature of functional explanations within
the social domain, and various applications of functionalist
theorising. As such, this is one of the first collections to
exclusively address a variety of philosophical questions concerning
the nature and relevance of social functions.
