A guide to transformations in sociological thinking that provides a systematic assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of postmodernism for sociology. Postmodernism is presented as a stimulus for sociologists to reconsider some of their central tenets and practices.

Postmodernism is frequently described as dealing a death-blow to sociology. This book, however, argues that it is a mistake to conceive postmodernism in terms of a fatal attack upon what sociologists do.

The contributors locate the identity of sociology `after′ postmodernism as a contested site which opens up the possibility of re-imagining the enterprise of sociology. They show how this re-imagination might be conducted and trace some of the key potential consequences.
