A. N. Whitehead and Social Theory

- Tracing a Culture of Thought

Bag om A. N. Whitehead and Social Theory

The contemporary importance of A. N. Whitehead (1861-1947) lies in his challenge to the culture of thought inherent in modernity. Whitehead''s philosophy is based on becoming, relativity, and a re-conception of subjectivity and the social. This book outlines Whitehead''s thought and uses it to re-orient a range of specific questions, namely: the relation of language and the body; sexual difference and conceptions of nature; the question of realism; the concept of the social; and viewing capitalism as process.
