"For decades, scholars have been calling into question the universality of disciplinary
objects and categories. The decay of master narratives showcases a distrust of universals,
while deepening particularity seems to promise nothing but further dissolution. For
Jason Josephson-Storm, these are dead ends. He wants to offer a path forward, which
he terms metamodernism. This is the first full-length work to line up the various
critiques of disciplinary master-categories (religion, science, art, etc.) and trace
their affinities and shared conceptual roots. It suggests that if these critiques
are granted, they tell us something fundamental about the mechanisms through which
concepts and social categories are produced and maintained. They suggest that the
social world should be seen in terms of a "process social ontology" with temporary
zones of stability called "social kinds." This amounts to a new theory of society
and a new methodology for research in the human sciences. The work also broadens to
fundamental issues of the relationship between knowledge and value, promoting not
skepticism but zeteticism--a stance directed toward humble, emancipatory knowledge.
Valuing this form of knowledge allows postmodernism to be channeled into a critical
virtue ethics directed toward multi-species"
