Remaking Modernity is the best representation available of the large and excellent generation of American historical sociologists now becoming prominent in the discipline”—Craig Calhoun, President of the Social Science Research Council
“Here, all in one volume, is the best of the rising generation of historical sociologists, applying their craft to themselves, reflecting on their antecedents in order to chart our discipline’s futures. Ranging across multiple fields, wrestling with the Marxist-inspired iconoclasm of second-wave historical sociology, this is sure to become a definitive text of the third wave.”—Michael Burawoy, University of California, Berkeley
