The book presents a compelling exploration of contemporary social theory by juxtaposing Western thought with Indian perspectives. Ananta Kumar Giri highlights significant yet overlooked Indian texts and thinkers, including both renowned figures like Gandhi and lesser-known theorists, who advocate for social responsibility and political renewal. The work encourages scholars to engage with pressing issues of late modernity and promotes a transdisciplinary approach, aiming to expand the dialogue in social theory beyond European-centric views.
