- Professor of Sociology, University of Tennessee
I have been teaching sociology for more than 30 years, and 21 years at my current university. My areas include theory (social, sociological and critical), political economy, comparative-historical sociology, sociology of science fiction/film, social implications of AI, and philosophy of social science. My work has appeared in several sociology and social theory journals and numerous edited volumes. The Vitality of Critical Theory is a collection of some of my essays that appeared in 2011. My current projects include a book manuscript, entitled Modern Society as Artifice: Critical Theory and the Logic of Capital, and a book centered on Adorno's sociology.
