Description

Rethinking Modernity: A New Perspective on Sociological Understanding In this updated edition of his influential work, Gurminder K. Bhambra challenges traditional accounts of modernity and its development, arguing that the experiences and claims of non-European 'others' have been overlooked in sociological narratives. Bhambra proposes a new approach to understanding modernity as a global phenomenon, rather than solely from an Eurocentric perspective. This revised framework, known as 'connected histories', seeks to reconstruct historical sociology at a global level. By rethinking modernity, Bhambra invites us to reconsider the sociological imagination and its role in promoting global justice.
