How can differences be understood in social theory through
comparisons, and how should social theory relate to regional
studies to do so?
This question has been prevalent within the sociological field
for over a century, but is becoming increasingly important in a
globalised age in which cultural borders are constantly challenged
and rapidly changing. In this collection, Arjomand and Reis
illuminate the importance of exploring spatial, cultural and
intellectual differences beyond generalizations, attempting to
understand diversity in itself as it takes shape across the world.
With contributions from internationally renowned scholars, and a
focussed emphasis upon sociological key themes such as
modernization, citizenship, human rights, inequality and
domination, this title provides a rich and convincing discussion
that will add significant value to the ongoing debate about
alternative modernities, diversity and change within the social
sciences.
Worlds of Difference constitutes an important and timely
collection that will be of great inspiration for students and
scholars alike.
