Niklas Luhmann's Modernity: The Paradoxes of Differentiation (Cultural Memory in the Present)

by WilliamRasch (Author)

Synopsis

This book is an introduction to the nature of modernity as envisioned by Germany's leading social theorist of the late 20th century, Niklas Luhmann. For Luhmann, modernity is neither an Enlightenment project nor a ludic rejection of that project, but rather the precondition of all our deliberations, the structure within which our semantics makes sense.
