- This co-authored monograph was developed over a period of 5 years, and includes 12 substantial chapters. Its ambition is to make sense of the speed and volatility of contemporary social change through an original reconstruction of the philosophical ‘problem of order’ in terms of the interaction between systemic, social and individual components of society. It embraces wide-ranging analyses of health, sex/gender, employment, finance, new social media, technology, terrorism and governance. The integration of diverse disciplines and literatures into an original theory involved the co-authors in extensive collaboration, alongside years of planning, writing and rewriting the individual chapters and overall narrative.
