Viac o knihe
Challenging conventional sociological perspectives, this work redefines social theory by centering on enlightenment itself. It critiques vague notions like modernity and postmodernity while advocating for specific anti-foundational approaches in fieldwork. Through case studies, it examines critical views on scientific, therapeutic, and aesthetic forms of enlightenment. A recurring theme is the role of social sciences and the intellectual's critical ethos. The book also pays homage to thinkers like Michel Foucault and Max Weber, highlighting their influence on the discourse surrounding enlightenment.
