Description

Theorizing Modernity: Inescapability and Attainability in Social Theory by Sage Publications offers a deep look into the current state of sociology. The text argues that the field has lost its capacity to provide critical diagnoses of the human condition because it has moved away from the philosophical requirements of social enquiry. This book works to restore that analytical ability by bringing back essential questions that are often overlooked in modern sociology. By focusing on the concepts of inescapability and attainability, the author provides a framework for understanding how these themes influence our world. This work is designed for scholars and students looking to reconnect social theory with its foundational philosophical roots.

Introduces the key concepts of inescapability and attainability as central themes in social theory.
