内容説明

Beginning, in a sense, where "Prophecy and Progress" ended, this work by Krishan Kumar provides an introduction to three new theories of industrial society: the information society, post-Fordism, and postmodernism. Asking why these theories have appeared when they have, and why they have held such an appeal, this critical survey should be suitable for students of contemporary society.

目次

  • The revival of post-industrial theory
  • the information society
  • Fordism and post-Fordism
  • modernity and postmodernity
  • futures of industrial society.

内容説明

In the second edition of this classic study, Krishan Kumar introduces and assesses the rival claims of three theories crucial to an understanding of contemporary social theory: the information society; post-Fordism; and post-modernism. Explaining how these theories developed and why they have held such an appeal, the author provides the most readable and evenly-balanced account of three very different, but overlapping paradigms. In a new and substantial introduction, Kumar places the three key approaches within the context of contemporary discourse on globalization. From Post-Industrial to Post-Modern Society is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand contemporary theories of social, cultural, and economic change.

目次

1. Preface. 2. The Revival of Post-Industrial Theory. 3. The Information Society. 4. Fordism and Post-Fordism. 5. Modernity and Postmodernity. 6. Futures of Industrial Society.
