Each chapter in this unique collection takes seriously Baumanâs analysis of modernity as âliquidâ, throwing new light upon global social problems, as well as opening up a space for assessing the nature of Baumanâs contribution to sociology, and for understanding what may be gained and lost by embracing an artistic sensibility within the social sciences.
