Description

This comprehensive academic work examines how Western social theory applies to modern Asian societies, bridging philosophical debates about individualization with real-world social contexts. The author analyses influential theorists including Beck, Giddens, Bourdieu, McNay, Adkins, and Ong, exploring their frameworks through the lens of contemporary Asia. The book addresses how late modernity engages with intimacy, reflexivity, and identity formation across different cultural and political landscapes. By combining rigorous theoretical analysis with practical applications to Asian social, political, and cultural contexts, this Routledge Studies volume offers scholars and students a nuanced understanding of how individualization debates resonate beyond Western frameworks, making it essential reading for those studying sociology, anthropology, and social theory in global contexts.
