Description
In this major theoretical statement, the author offers a new and provocative interpretation of institutional transformations associated with modernity. The book builds upon the author's previous theoretical writings and will be of great interest to those who have followed his work through the years. However, this book covers issues the author has not previously analyzed and extends the scope of his work into areas of pressing practical concern.
