Feminists, race theorists, decolonizing leaders, and others are thoughtfully introduced by Charles Lemert's substantial commentaries. \u003ci\u003eSocial Theory \u003c\/i\u003ehas always sought to keep up with the new while respecting the old--from Durkheim and Weber to Latinx and LGBTQ pioneers.

Today, as the world is threatened by a global wave of anti-democratic movements, \u003ci\u003eSocial Theory \u003c\/i\u003eadds a new early section to remind us of the origins of democratic values in the 1700s. A new concluding section focuses the theoretical mind on how, in the 2020s, social theorists are rethinking the world in order to better understand and resist the menace of anti-democratic movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharles Lemert\u003c\/strong\u003e is University Professor and Andrus Professor of Social Theory Emeritus at Wesleyan University.
