Title: NEW PHILOSOPHY OF SOCIETY
Subtitle: ASSEMBLAGE THEORY AND SOCIAL COMPLEXITY
Description: Manuel DeLanda is a distinguished writer, artist and philosopher. In his new book, he offers a fascinating look at how the contemporary world is characterized by an extraordinary social complexity. Since most social entities, from small communities to large nation-states, would disappear altogether if human minds ceased to exist, Delanda proposes a novel approach to social ontology that asserts the autonomy of social entities from the conceptions we have of them
