Introduction
This book’s main purpose was to outline some of the theoretical and practical implications of the recent technological revolution, referring to contemporary human/non-human relations, for social researchers and for readers of sociological analysis. The main hypothesis is that the rising entanglement of human and non- human elements, but also an increasingly common awareness of the limitations of human development, require an adaptation—if not a regeneration—of epistemological and methodological tools for the interpretation of current social processes.
