Critiques of Everyday Life

More about the book

Focusing on the concept of everyday life, Michael E. Gardiner explores a counter-tradition in theorizing that aims to transform lived experiences into critical knowledge. He engages with influential theorists, including Henri Lefebvre and Michel de Certeau, while examining themes such as rationality, ethics, and intersubjectivity. By critiquing existing frameworks, Gardiner highlights the significance of a multi-disciplinary approach to everyday life, opening new avenues for social and cultural theorizing as well as empirical research.
