作品としての社会科学 (同時代ライブラリー 95)
Yoshihiko Uchida uses close readings of Adam Smith, Hajime Kawakami, Nakae Chomin, and others to present the social sciences as a living practice of thought. Rather than observing institutions and theory from outside, he enters their language and structure as one would read a literary work, showing how social understanding can become a question of one's own life.
Work Information
The book rethinks social science not as abstract theory but as a work through which people read and live society.
Social Science as a Work shows Yoshihiko Uchida's thought in the form of a practice of reading, grounded in the history of economics and social thought. Through the question of how to read classical texts and receive their logic and feeling, it treats social science not as knowledge outside the self but as self-understanding for people living within society. Though its subjects are demanding, it also serves as an introduction that conveys both the rigor and the excitement of scholarship.
Review Summaries
-
The book drew critical attention at publication for opening the method of social science beyond specialized knowledge and toward the problems of reading and living.
