Description | According to cultural sociology, sociological interpretations are performative acts embedded both in the reasonable conversation of academic discourse & in the life-world that surrounds their potential audiences. In this sense, sociological interpretations are emerging from the interplay of the empirical reconstruction of reality; the conceptual structures of social theory; & the requirements of social performances. My paper will focus on the interconnection of critical cosmopolitanism & the critique of methodological nationalism with a particular attention to the performative dimension of these critical approaches. |
