The book critically examines the foundations of critical social theory through the lens of Wittgenstein's philosophy. It questions the frameworks established by prominent theorists such as Giddens, Habermas, and Bhaskar, offering a fresh perspective that challenges conventional understandings within social theory. By integrating philosophical insights, it aims to provoke thought and inspire a reevaluation of established theories in the social sciences.
