Ernest Gellner’s Legacy and Social Theory Today (inbunden, eng)

This edited volume examines the critical issues of the 21^st century through the prism of Ernest Gellner''s work. The contributors look critically at Gellner´s legacy, questioning whether he remains an inspiration for today''s social theorists. Chapters proactively probe Gellner''s thoughts on a variety of pressing topics-modernity, postcolonialsm, nationalism, and more-without losing sight of current debates on these issues.

This volume further brings these debates to life by having each chapter followed by a comment by an academic peer of the chapter author, thus transforming the text into a lively and dynamic conversation.
