Social Imaginary and the Metaphysical Discourse: On the Fundamental Predicament of Contemporary Philosophy and Social Sciences

Developing the notion of the 'social imaginary' in order to move away from relativistic and 'objectivist' notions of truth, this book points to an extra-linguistic level in our cognition, thus exploring the interrelations that exist between the imagineries by which we organise our experience and scientific understanding of the world.
