The Restructuring of Social and Political Theory"Anyone who wants to understand the profound changes that have overtaken the social disciplines in the course of the past decade ought to read Bernstein's book.

Bernstein is Vera List Professor of Philosophy, New School for Social Research. |

LibraryThing Review
Nutzerbericht - thcson - LibraryThingExcellent overview of what social theory should aim for today. The author argues that it must be empirical, interpretive and critical all at the same time. As always in Bernstein's books, the argumentation goes deep to the heart of the matter with a clarity that few writers can match. Vollständige Rezension lesen
