SOCIOLOGIJA IR REFLEKTYVUMAS by Algimantas Valantiejus

“…In any case, the turn of latter-day sociological inquiry, as compared with the traditional attempt to apply one and the only theoretical synthesis, shows that under the new perspective the sociology undergoes a radical reframing. The new sociological identity is being shaped by 1) fragmentary and relative context; 2) the attempts of reflexive methodology to systemically and critically evaluate the social-scientific accounts of reality; 3) the skeptical treatment of "representations"; 4) the "performative" character of critical activity; 5) experience of indeterminacy conditioned by a) the antithesis between the conventional and the new theoretical projects; b) the social aspects of scientific activity which include the conversational, discursive and reflexive dimensions. …”
