Richard Harvey Brown's pioneering explorations in the philosophy of
social science and the theory of rhetoric reach a culmination in
"Social Science as Civic Discourse." In his earlier works, he
argued for a logic of discovery and explanation in social science
by showing that science and art both depend on metaphoric thinking,
and he has applied that logic to society as a narrative text in
which significant action by moral agents is possible. This new work
is at once a philosophical critique of social theory and a
social-theoretical critique of politics. Brown proposes to redirect
the language and the mission of the social sciences toward a new
discourse for a humane civic practice.
