Sommario/riassunto |
|
Este es un libro refrescante: no tiene nada trillado, rechaza con fundamento diversos convencionalismos y modas académicas, y no vacila en tomar clara posición en temas espinosos. Con este libro Bernardo Sorj muestra una vez más lo que ya sabíamos los que hemos seguido su trayectoria: no es sólo un excelente sociólogo profesional, es también y sobre todo un verdadero intelectual, un pensador crítico de las grandes cuestiones de nuestro mundo — especialmente el Latinoamericano. |
