The anthropological turn : French political thought after 1968

Jacob Collins (Author)
"The Anthropological Turn: French Political Thought After 1968 is a history of contemporary political and social ideas in France. The central chapters are devoted to four thinkers who have been overlooked in historical scholarship, but whose intellectual systems could not be understood without reference to Lévi-Strauss, Durkheim, Dumézil, Bourdieu, and others. It seeks, along with the above-named histories, to give a contextualized account of French political thought not only to explain the ideas of four different thinkers but also to show how they were conceptualized and received in France's public sphere"-- Provided by publisher
