Description:This book applies the general theory of critical rationalism in order to develop a sociology of the transition from a closed to an open society. It presents a criticism of Karl Popper's analysis of human action for opening up closed society, followed by a critical study of the mainstream sociology to show how justificational models of knowledge and rational action have prevented sociology from addressing the contribution of human action to social change.This book provides new sociologies of closed and open societies. It argues that, in the closed society, a low level of critical rationality is activated by people to define the meaning of the good life and social institutions of law, polity and economy. Masoud Mohammadi Alamuti proposes five mechanisms of opening up closed society through the model of social change, inspired by the philosophy of critical rationalism.This volume is the first systematic attempt to apply a new philosophy of critical rationalism in order to present a new sociology of the open society. It will be of interest to postgraduate researchers and professional readers in philosophy, sociology, epistemology, moral science, law, politics, and economics. In addition, this book would benefit research centers, policy-makers and civil society activists interested in critical rationalism and the idea of open society.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
