A Passion for Society

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the social causes of individual suffering, this book challenges the dispassionate stance often found in anthropology and sociology. Authors Iain Wilkinson and Arthur Kleinman advocate for integrating compassion and caregiving into social science, aiming to create a moral framework against indifference. They critique the coldness of academic approaches and propose a more engaged, humane understanding of society. This thought-provoking work serves as both a guide and a call to action, urging a compassionate response to global suffering and injustice.
