Sociology and Beyond: Windows and Horizons is an excellent, lively and comprehensive odyssey, which brings new life to sociology by going beyond conventional paradigms and disciplinary boundaries. It is a bold and pioneering endeavour in its quest for a new vision and practice of the idea of society as well as field of sociology. Offering the concept of society as ontological sociality and as a space of meditative verbs of co-realizations”self as well as collective, the book continues the border-crossing, transgressive and transformative quest of many of the seekers and savants in our world of knowledge and practice today. It pleads for going beyond parochialism” both metropolitan and native, Western and Indian”and realize sociology as part of multi-dimensional planetary conversations involving both comparative global studies as well as cross-cultural conversations.
Sociology and Beyond pleads for the sadhana of a transdisciplinary, transparadigmatic and transformative sociology animated by the passion of self-development, inclusion of the other and planetary realizations. Thoughtfully argued and lucidly written, it is a path-breaking as well as breath-taking work of our times which would interest not only scholars inside universities but also all seeking souls in our fragile humanity.
